Reed-Solomon Decoder

A Reed-Solomon decoder is a device or algorithm that detects and corrects errors in data transmitted over noisy channels, such as satellite communication or digital storage. It works by analyzing the received data, identifying discrepancies caused by errors, and then accurately restoring the original message. The decoder relies on mathematical principles involving polynomials over finite fields, allowing it to correct multiple errors efficiently. This ensures data integrity and reliability even when some parts are corrupted during transmission or storage.
