Description
This title covers the fundamentals of error-correcting codes for the non-specialist user, from general concepts through to the most common error-correcting codes applied to bit transmission in packet switched networks and personal cellular systems. It also includes sections on linear blockades, BCH codes and cyclic codes. The work is intended for professionals and students needing a thorough tutorial in error correction.
