Abstract

A redundant code generation method includes: dividing original data into data strings; dividing each data string into a number of bit strings that accords with an extended Galois field operation; storing each of the bit string in a different memory area of a memory; and executing an exclusive OR operation among vectors, which are extracted from the respective bit strings stored in the memory, according to an operational expression to compute bit strings that make up redundant code data strings without carrying out a bit shift operation within the vectors. A predetermined plural number of bits is taken as a data unit and the number of bits as elements constituting each vector is equal to the data unit. The operational expression includes a companion matrix of a primitive polynomial of the Galois field and defined the generation of the redundant code data strings.
