  2. Hamming code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamming_code

    For each integer r ≥ 2 there is a code-word with block length n = 2 r − 1 and message length k = 2 r − r − 1. Hence the rate of Hamming codes is R = k / n = 1 − r / (2 r − 1) , which is the highest possible for codes with minimum distance of three (i.e., the minimal number of bit changes needed to go from any code word to any other ...

  3. Hamming (7,4) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamming(7,4)

    As mentioned above, rows 1, 2, and 4 of G should look familiar as they map the data bits to their parity bits: p 1 covers d 1, d 2, d 4; p 2 covers d 1, d 3, d 4; p 3 covers d 2, d 3, d 4; The remaining rows (3, 5, 6, 7) map the data to their position in encoded form and there is only 1 in that row so it is an identical copy.

  4. Error correction code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_correction_code

    A block code (specifically a Hamming code) where redundant bits are added as a block to the end of the initial message A continuous convolutional code where redundant bits are added continuously into the structure of the code word. The two main categories of ECC codes are block codes and convolutional codes.

  5. Code rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_rate

    The code rate of the octet oriented Reed Solomon block code denoted RS(204,188) is 188/204, meaning that 204 − 188 = 16 redundant octets (or bytes) are added to each block of 188 octets of useful information.

  6. Computation of cyclic redundancy checks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computation_of_cyclic...

    As an example of implementing polynomial division in hardware, suppose that we are trying to compute an 8-bit CRC of an 8-bit message made of the ASCII character "W", which is binary 01010111 2, decimal 87 10, or hexadecimal 57 16.

    Extended boot signature. (Should be 0x29 [24] [25] [26] [21] to indicate that an EBPB with the following 3 entries exists (since OS/2 1.2 and DOS 4.0). Can be 0x28 on some OS/2 1.0-1.1 and PC DOS 3.4 disks indicating an earlier form of the EBPB format with only the serial number following. MS-DOS/PC DOS 4.0 and higher, OS/2 1.2 and higher as ...

  8. Singleton bound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singleton_bound

    In coding theory, the Singleton bound, named after Richard Collom Singleton, is a relatively crude upper bound on the size of an arbitrary block code with block length , size and minimum distance . It is also known as the Joshibound [ 1 ] proved by Joshi (1958) and even earlier by Komamiya (1953) .

  9. Linear code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_code

    The codewords in a linear block code are blocks of symbols that are encoded using more symbols than the original value to be sent. [2] A linear code of length n transmits blocks containing n symbols. For example, the [7,4,3] Hamming code is a linear binary code which represents 4-bit messages using 7-bit codewords. Two distinct codewords differ ...
