Optimized Serial Linear Block Code Generator for High Speed Communication*

Abstract

To achieve high speed optical communication the operating speed of the transmission and reception units must be as high as possible. Optical processing provides high speed switching characteristics required for digital communication. A noisy channel may cause errors in the transmitted message. Various coding schemes provide one to make the communication secure and cost effective. Here in this work an optimized design of serial linear block code generator is presented using electro-optical methods employing minimum hardware. The reconfigurable design provides flexibility to the device and the user.
