“Soft Error” Correction Method Based on Low Complexity Coding and Encoding Algorithm

SEU is one of the major challenges affecting the reliability of computers on-board. In this paper, we design a kind of encoding and decoding algorithms with a low complexity based on the data correction method to resolve the data stream errors SEU may bring. Firstly, we use the theory of linear block codes to analyze various methods of data fault tolerance, and then from the encoding and decoding principle of linear block codes we design a kind of encoding and decoding algorithms with a low complexity of linear block code, The fault-tolerant coding method can effectively correct single-bit data errors caused by SEU, with low fault-tolerant overhead. Fault injection experiments show that: this method can effectively correct data errors caused by single event upset. Compared with other common error detection or correction methods, error correction performance of this method is superior, while its fault tolerance cost is less.
