Abstract

Described herein are an apparatus, system, and method for encoder assisted decoding of linear systematic block codes. The apparatus comprises a first logic unit to receive a codeword from a memory, the codeword having a data portion and a corresponding parity portion; an encoder to encode the data portion of the received codeword and to generate a corresponding parity of the data portion of the received codeword; a second logic unit to generate a first parity portion from the corresponding parity portion of the codeword received by the first logic unit and the corresponding parity portion generated by the encoder; and a correction unit to correct the data portion of the codeword via the generated first parity portion.
