Error-correcting codes are fundamental tools in ensuring the reliability of data transmission and storage by incorporating redundancy that enables the detection and correction of errors. Over recent ...
Forward error-correction (FEC) has been integrated as a necessary adjunct for 10-Gbit Ethernet networks, and is assumed to be a necessity for any systems operating above that speed, particularly in ...
Second, the codes are typically 7 or 8 bits, which makes for an inefficient use of a 16-bit memory structure. This is handled by using the same memory chip for data and codes. This is referred to as ...
