Abstract
The H.F. (High Frequency) digital mobile radio channel (3–30 MHz) is corrupted by both random and burst errors. The aim of this paper is to design F.E.C. (Forward Error-Correction) coding schemes in order to evaluate their performances concerning burst errors. In this way, simulations have been carried out using two concatenated coding schemes. Both schemes involve an outer R.S. code, whereas the inner code used is either a convolutional code or an interleaver-deinterleaver. It should be stressed that an arithmetic in Galois Field GF(2m) is needed in order to achieve the R.S. CODEC (COding-DECoding) scheme, using Berlekamp's bit-serial algorithm.
