ERROR DETECTION
ERROR DETECTION METHODS
REDUNDANCY
The concept of including extra information in the
transmission for error detection is called
redundancy.
When the receiver checks the parity bits, some of the bits
do not follow the even-parity rule and the whole block is
PERFORMANCE OF LRC
A redundancy of n bits can detect a burst error of
n bits.
A burst error of more than n bits is also detected
with a very high probability .(99.97%)
However if 2 bits in one data unit are damaged
and two bits in exactly the same positions in
another data unit are also damaged ,the checker
will not detect the error.
