The central concept in detecting or correcting errors is redundancy. To be able to

detect or correct errors, we need to send some extra bits with our data. These redundant bits are added by the sender and removed by the receiver. Their presence allows the receiver to detect or correct corrupted bits.

What is the difference between Error detection and error correction?

In error detection we detect the error.but in error correction we can detect as well as coreect the error both.in error detection we use parity multiplication system i.e even and odd parity.and in error correction we use hamming code as a example.


What is the error correction mechanism?

Error correction mechanisms are techniques used in computer systems to detect and correct errors that may occur during data transmission or storage. These mechanisms typically involve adding redundant bits to the data to enable error detection and correction. Common error correction techniques include parity checks, checksums, and cyclic redundancy checks (CRC).


Where is XOR implemented?

It is mainly implemented in error detection and correction. It is used for performing modulo arithmetic.


What is the purpose of a channel encoder and decoder in modern communication systems?

channel encoder inserts additional information to the transmitted bit stream to facilitate error detection and correction at the receiver. channel decoder is quite opposite to the channel encoder which transmits desired data after the error detection and correction .


Error detection at data link layer is achieved by?

Error detection at data link level is achieved by using a Frame Check Sequence (FCS) method like Parity, Checksum Calculation or Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC).

Cyclic redundancy check error?

A cyclic redundancy check error or CRC error occurs when the data verification value is a redundancy. This is used in detecting common errors caused by noise in transmission channels.


Is the cyclic redundancy check better than hamming code?

It depends on what you are doing. The cyclic redundancy check will only detect an error, while the hamming code can also correct many types of errors. However to perform this correction the extra error detection parity bits required in hamming code are many more than the bits needed for cyclic redundancy check, per data byte being checked. Normally cyclic redundancy check is done on large block of data that can be resent or retried to get the correct block of data (e.g. telecommunication channels, disk sectors). Normally hamming code is done on individual bytes or words of computer memory.


Why even parity and odd parity mechanisms are ineffective in modern communications?

Even and odd parity mechanisms are ineffective in modern communications primarily due to their limited error-detection capabilities, as they can only detect single-bit errors and fail to identify multiple-bit errors or errors in an even number of bits. In today's data transmission environments, where the likelihood of complex error patterns is higher, more robust error detection and correction methods, such as checksums, cyclic redundancy checks (CRC), or forward error correction (FEC), are necessary to ensure data integrity. Additionally, the simplicity of parity checks makes them inadequate for the high-speed, high-volume demands of modern networks.

What is error control in networking?

An error-detection code by itself does not control errors, but it can be used to request repeated transmission of errored code words until they are received error-free. This technique is called ARQ. In terms of error performance, ARQ outperforms forward error correction (FEC) because code words always are delivered error-free (provided the error-detection code doesn't fail). However, this performance does not come free of charge - we pay for it with decreased throughput. The chief advantage of ARQ is that error detection requires simpler decoding than error correction. ARQ also is adaptive because it only re-transmits information when errors occur. On the other hand, ARQ schemes require a feedback path that may not be available.
