Overview

This implementation of a M=8 Reed Solomon decoder has been designed to use a minimum set of resources whilst maintaining a medium throughput and flexible configuration. It supports per-packet setting for codeword length, message length, generator polynomial start index and fully supports the maximum number of erasures. It requires 16k gates and one 8x256 bit single port synchronous SRAM. The clock frequency needs to be 3x the message bit rate. The core benefits from an APB interface for setup and control, plus an AXI4-Stream master slave interface for the data plane. The AXI4-Stream interface fully supports bursty input data and backpressure on the output.

Practical Considerations of LDPC Decoder Design in Communications Systems

This paper covers some practical aspects of designing the LDPC decoder starting from comparison between different techniques, different decoders parameters or standards, the effect of those parameters on the LDPC performance, also it discusses the algorithm selection process, and floating point implementation process.

Audio Transport in DisplayPort VIP

DisplayPort uses Secondary Data Packets (SDPs), which are transported over the Main-Link that are not main video stream data. This allows it to carry audio and video simultaneously. The VIP supports audio transmission both in the original mode as defined in the specification as well as just as any other SDP being transmitted.
