A novel fountain coding scheme has been introduced. The scheme consists of a parallel concatenation of a MDS block code with a LRFC code, both constructed over the same field, Fq. The performance of the concatenated fountain coding scheme has been analyzed through derivation of tight bounds on the probability of decoding failure as a function of the overhead. It has been shown how the concatenated scheme performs as well as LRFC codes in channels characterized by high erasure probabilities, whereas they provide failure probabilities lower by several orders of magnitude at moderate/low erasure probabilities.
