L-STEP MAJORITY LOGIC DECODING,
Abstract
In the search for multiple-error-correcting codes which can be easily and rapidly decoded, some coding theorists have turned their attentions to threshold (majority logic) decoding. Much work has been done in this area recently, and quite a few classes of new codes suitable for threshold decoding have been developed. The main desirable feature of majority logic decoding is that it can be very simply implemented. Furthermore majority decoding can also automatically correct many more patterns of errors other than those guaranteed by the decoding schemes without any additional equipment. This paper is a survey of the L-step majority decoding.
