C# Error Correction Code Selection for 32-bit Short Bitstream Messages
When transmitting 32-bit messages with possible bit mistakes, it is essential to choose an efficient error correction code (ECC). Since Reed-Solomon algorithms are better suited for byte-level faults, initial testing revealed problems when managing random bit flips. This article examines merging ECC with CRC checks and different ECCs like Hamming and BCH codes. More flexibility and dependability are offered by these systems, particularly in high-error situations where up to 15% of the bits may flip at random. By knowing the advantages of each technique, developers can improve data integrity and reduce retransmissions.
