Abstract

A decoding algorithm for generalized concatenated codes is described which is a modification of the one propsed in [6]. It is shown that the decoding capability is superior and the complexity is less compared to the previous known decoding algorithms for generalized concatenated codes.

The author is with the AEG Olympia AG, Ulm, West Germany. The research was supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG).
