Redundant residue number system based error correction codes

In this paper residue number system (RNS) arithmetic and redundant residue number system (RRNS) based codes as well as their properties are reviewed. We propose a number of applications for RRNS codes and demonstrate how RRNS codes can be employed in global communication systems, in order to simplify the associated systems by unifying the entire encoding and decoding procedure across global communication systems.
