The on-line textbook: Information Theory, Inference, and Learning Algorithms, by David J.C. MacKay, contains chapters on elementary error-correcting codes; on the theoretical limits of error-correction; and on the latest state-of-the-art error-correcting codes, including low-density parity-check codes, turbo codes, and fountain codes.
If the number of errors within a code word exceeds the error-correcting code's capability, it fails to recover the original code word. Interleaving alleviates this problem by shuffling source symbols across several code words, thereby creating a more uniform distribution of errors. [ 21 ]

Proof. We need to prove that if you add a burst of length to a codeword (i.e. to a polynomial that is divisible by ()), then the result is not going to be a codeword (i.e. the corresponding polynomial is not divisible by ()).
Compared to randomly generated LDPC codes, structured LDPC codes—such as the LDPC code used in the DVB-S2 standard—can have simpler and therefore lower-cost hardware—in particular, codes constructed such that the H matrix is a circulant matrix.
As mentioned above, there are a vast number of error-correcting codes that are actually block codes. The first error-correcting code was the Hamming(7,4) code, developed by Richard W. Hamming in 1950. This code transforms a message consisting of 4 bits into a codeword of 7 bits by adding 3 parity bits. Hence this code is a block code.
Chapter 5 studies cyclic codes and Chapter 6 studies a special case of cyclic codes, the quadratic residue codes. Chapter 7 returns to BCH codes. [1] [6] After these discussions of specific codes, the next chapter concerns enumerator polynomials, including the MacWilliams identities, Pless's own power moment identities, and the Gleason ...
The distance d was usually understood to limit the error-correction capability to ⌊(d−1) / 2⌋. The Reed–Solomon code achieves this bound with equality, and can thus correct up to ⌊(n−k) / 2⌋ errors. However, this error-correction bound is not exact.
