 * Reed-Solomon coding and decoding
 * Phil Karn (karn at ka9q.ampr.org) September 1996

 * This file is derived from the program "new_rs_erasures.c" by Robert
 * Morelos-Zaragoza (robert at spectra.eng.hawaii.edu) and Hari Thirumoorthy
 * (harit at spectra.eng.hawaii.edu), Aug 1995
 *
 * I've made changes to improve performance, clean up the code and make it
 * easier to follow. Data is now passed to the encoding and decoding functions
 * through arguments rather than in global arrays. The decode function returns
 * the number of corrected symbols, or -1 if the word is uncorrectable.
 *
 * This code supports a symbol size from 2 bits up to 16 bits,
 * implying a block size of 3 2-bit symbols (6 bits) up to 65535
 * 16-bit symbols (1,048,560 bits). The code parameters are set in rs.h.
 *
 * Note that if symbols larger than 8 bits are used, the type of each
 * data array element switches from unsigned char to unsigned int. The
 * caller must ensure that elements larger than the symbol range are
 * not passed to the encoder or decoder.

/* generate GF(2**m) from the irreducible polynomial p(X) in p[0]..p[m]

   alpha=2 is the primitive element of GF(2**m)
   HARI's COMMENT: (4/13/94) alpha_to[] can be used as follows:
        Let @ represent the primitive element commonly called "alpha" that
   is the root of the primitive polynomial p(x). Then in GF(2^m), for any
   0 <= i <= 2^m-2,
        @^i = a(0) + a(1) @ + a(2) @^2 + ... + a(m-1) @^(m-1)
   where the binary vector (a(0),a(1),a(2),...,a(m-1)) is the representation
   of the integer "alpha_to[i]" with a(0) being the LSB and a(m-1) the MSB. Thus for
   example the polynomial representation of @^5 would be given by the binary
   representation of the integer "alpha_to[5]".
                   Similarily, index_of[] can be used as follows:
        As above, let @ represent the primitive element of GF(2^m) that is
   the root of the primitive polynomial p(x). In order to find the power
   of @ (alpha) that has the polynomial representation
        a(0) + a(1) @ + a(2) @^2 + ... + a(m-1) @^(m-1)
   we consider the integer "i" whose binary representation with a(0) being LSB
   and a(m-1) MSB is (a(0),a(1),...,a(m-1)) and locate the entry
   "index_of[i]". Now, @^index_of[i] is that element whose polynomial 
    representation is (a(0),a(1),a(2),...,a(m-1)).
   NOTE:
        The element alpha_to[2^m-1] = 0 always signifying that the
   representation of "@^infinity" = 0 is (0,0,0,...,0).
        Similarily, the element index_of[0] = A0 always signifying
   that the power of alpha which has the polynomial representation
   (0,0,...,0) is "infinity".

Hello!

My name is Arnaud and presentely I work for the Answer-systems company in France.

In fact I also made an ANSI C code in order to code and decode RS codes from 2^1 -1 to 2^24 -1.I also use arrays to store the galois fields elements but I would like to know if you knew something about the "division-free berlekamp-Massey" that could get rid of the inversion needed or a way to compute it efficientely. The main goal of my project is to implement the whole algorithm into a FPGA and it would be interesting to replace the arrays needed to store the galois fields elements by simple dedicated GF multiplier! So if you knew something I would be really greatful! Thanks for answering me! Arnaud
