For the purpose of fast encoding and decoding,a formula for detecting two errors is derived, and the Qian search method for the decoding process is improved. The number of searches is significantly reduced from 256 to 4. At the same time, the circuit is simplified and the speed is increased. For the convenience of programming, a micro-programming compiling package is developed. The package can be used for programming of different formats of R-S code signal processors of DAB, MD and DCC. The software and the hardware can be used for error correcting, error detecting and error compensation of different formats of R-S code.展开更多

In recent years, C. Cotardo has introduced coding theory into neuroscience, proposing the concept of combinatorial neural codes. And it was further studied in depth using algebraic methods by C. Curto. In this paper, we construct a class of combinatorial neural codes with special properties based on classical combinatorial structures such as orthogonal Latin rectangle, disjoint Steiner systems, groupable designs and transversal designs. These neural codes have significant weight distribution properties and large minimum distances, and are thus valuable for potential applications in information representation and neuroscience. This study provides new ideas for the construction method and property analysis of combinatorial neural codes, and enriches the study of algebraic coding theory.展开更多
