On run-length limited error control codes constructed from binary single parity check product codes

Abstract

In this paper it is shown that Run-Length Limited Error Control Codes could be constructed from two and more-dimensional Single Parity Check Product Codes in case that at least one of the component codes has even codeword length. The main advantage is that this could be done without any additional redundancy and without modification of the encoding and decoding procedure used for the underlying error control code.
