Reed solomon code with erasures



Hello,

I'm interested in using RS- Reed solomon codes with erasures.

I know the RS code can correct 2g+e<=n-k, where g is erasure and e is error.

My system can find the erasures with high probability.
My question is, if the system can detect X erasures but 50% of them are correct.
Meaning they were mistakenly detected as erasures.
Will I earn something using decoder with erasure or using regular decoding ?

Another question, if from the X erasures 75% are correct.
Will I earn something ?


thanks
