Method and apparatus for generating error correction data, and a computer-readable recording medium recording an error correction data generating program thereon

摘要

When error correction data, which is to be inserted into transmission data at specific intervals, is generated by calculating exclusive-OR of the transmission data, cumulative exclusive-OR of the transmission data is continuously calculated independent of the error correction data insertion intervals. Exclusive-OR between a calculation of the exclusive-OR at the time of the previous error correction data insertion and a calculation of the exclusive-OR at the time of the current error correction data insertion is calculated, thereby generating error correction data to be inserted at the present time. This provides efficient error correction data calculation.
