Error Control Through Coding. Volume Viii. Experimental Verification and Other Studies

摘要

The volume contains the results of three investigations. The first of these, an experimental verification of the techniques used in the handbook of Volume 6 is described in Section 2. It described the gathering of error statistics, the data reduction, the selection of the optimum system and prediction of its performance, and the verification of the predicted performance. Section 3 contains a mathematical development showing the equivalence of block error rates as a function of n and the distribution of error-free intervals. In Section 4 a technique for combining error detection with message framing is described.
