Abstract
Data encoding apparatus and methods are disclosed. A Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) coding module is selected, from a plurality of different CRC coding modules, for coding a block of information. A generic coder, which is configurable to perform CRC coding based on any of the plurality of different CRC coding modules, is configured to perform CRC coding for the block of information based on the selected CRC coding module. A block of information for which a coding operation is to be performed may be segmented into a plurality of segments having respective lengths. Respective generic coders may be configured to perform the coding operation for the plurality of segments. In this case, a result of the coding operation for the block of information may be determined based on results of the coding operations for the plurality of data segments.
