Binary Cyclic Decoder

Decode systematic cyclic code to recover binary vector data

Library

Block sublibrary of Error Detection and Correction

• 

Description

The Binary Cyclic Decoder block recovers a message vector from a codeword vector of a binary systematic cyclic code. For proper decoding, the parameter values in this block should match those in the corresponding Binary Cyclic Encoder block.

This block accepts a column vector input signal containing N elements, where N is the codeword length. The output signal is a column vector containing K elements, where K is the message length of the cyclic code.

You can determine the systematic cyclic coding scheme in one of two ways:

• To create an [N,K] code, enter N and K as the first and second dialog parameters, respectively. The block computes an appropriate generator polynomial, namely, cyclpoly(N,K,'min').

• To create a code with codeword length N and a particular degree-(N-K) binary generator polynomial, enter N as the first parameter and a polynomial character vector or a binary vector as the second parameter. The vector represents the generator polynomial by listing its coefficients in order of ascending exponents. You can create cyclic generator polynomials using the Communications Toolbox™ cyclpoly function.

For information about the data types each block port supports, see the Supported Data Type table on this page.

Parameters

Codeword length N

The codeword length N, which is also the input vector length.

Message length K, or generator polynomial

Either the message length, which is also the input vector length, a polynomial character vector, or a binary vector that represents the generator polynomial for the code.
