Last month I showed how coding and error correction allows next-generation broadcast technologies such as DVB-T2 and DVB-NGH to achieve performance very close to the ...

While noise can show up anywhere, ECC also can correct deterministic errors, such as those caused by faulty cells. This makes it possible to develop a design and test strategy that leverages some of ...

Several techniques can be used to efficiently implement a Hamming coder for single-bit error correction and double-bit error detection. Many error-correcting codes ...

FEC (forward error correction), a critical component of many modern digital-communications applications, turns otherwise-unusable links into real and practical ...

Today’s quantum computing hardware is severely limited in what it can do by errors that are difficult to avoid. There can be problems with everything from setting the initial state of a qubit to ...

Quantum error correction (QEC) and fault-tolerant computation provide the critical framework for realising reliable quantum processors in the presence of inevitable ...

For the uninitiated, low-density parity-check (LDPC) code is an error correction code (ECC) that is used to both detect and correct errors on data that is transmitted ...
