Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present inventions are related to systems and methods for data processing, and more particularly to systems and methods for variable rate encoding and/or decoding in a data processing system. In some cases, embodiments include a variable length data decoder circuit that is operable to apply a decode algorithm to the encoded input based upon a first selected H-Matrix to yield a first decoded output and apply the decode algorithm to the encoded input based upon a second selected H-Matrix to yield a second decoded output.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A data processing system, the data processing system comprising: a variable length data decoder circuit operable to: receive an encoded input; select a first H-Matrix to yield a first selected H-Matrix; apply a decode algorithm to the encoded input based upon the first selected H-Matrix to yield a first decoded output; select a second H-matrix to yield a second selected H-Matrix; apply the decode algorithm to the encoded input based upon the second…
