A straightforward and easily accessible introduction to the subject error detection and correction
This textbook leads the student step by though this complex topic, providing a firm foundation to the study of error-control codes. It begins with single parity code checks and repetition codes and though these basic error- control mechanisms the fundamental principles of error detection and correction, minimum distance and error-control code through to linear codes, cyclic codes,linear feedback shift registers, vector field, Galois fields,BCH
codes and convolutional codes.
Though the there are many detiled example to illustrate the principles to the student, and complex mathematical proofs are omitted where possible to keep the text concise and easy-to-follow.
-Start from a genuiely introductory level so that students without prior knowledge can understand this challenging topic.
-Avoids unnecessary mathematical proofs.
