ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for detection and correction of errors in encoded digital data arranged in bytes is disclosed using a digital data processor for correcting errors in original digital data bytes organized into blocks each containing a plurality of bytes, each block containing information data bytes and parity data bytes. The original digital data bytes containing errors are processed a block at a time with a first decoder, thereby correcting errors in the original digital data bytes, to form first corrected digital data bytes. The first corrected digital data bytes include the same number of bytes as in the sets of the original data bytes. Second sets of digital data bytes from the first corrected digital data bytes are processed with a second decoder to form further corrected digital data bytes. The digital data bytes to be processed by one of the first and second decoders are de-interleaved before processing by such decoders so that the digital data bytes are processed by one of the first and second decoders in a different sequence than by the other decoder. In the further corrected digital data bytes following the first and second steps of processing, the same number of digital data bytes are retained as in the sets of the original digital data. The previously recited two steps of processing and the step of de-interleaving are repeated a second time using, in place of the original digital data, the retained further corrected digital data bytes to thereby further eliminate errors in the original digital data bytes.
