The Universal Decoder That Works in One Microsecond

By Patrick L. Kennedy Assistant Professor Rabia Yazicigil (ECE) and colleagues from MIT and Maynooth have developed the first silicon chip that can decode any error-correcting code—even codes that don’t yet exist— potentially leading to faster and more efficient 5G networks and connected devices. “This could change the way we communicate and store information,” says […]
