Error Detection and Correction
Data can be corrupted during transmission. For reliable
communication, error must be detected and corrected
Error Detection and Correction are implemented either
at the data link layer or the transport layer of the OSI
model

10.1 Type of Errors

Type of Errors(cont’d)
Single-Bit Error
~ is when only one bit in the data unit has changed (ex :
ASCII STX - ASCII LF)

11
Type of Errors(cont’d)
Multiple-Bit Error
~ is when two or more nonconsecutive bits in the data
unit have changed(ex : ASCII B - ASCII LF)
Kyung Hee Universit

12
Type of Errors(cont’d)
Burst Error
~ means that 2 or more consecutive bits in the data unit
have changed

10.2 Detection
Error detection uses the concept of redundancy, which
means adding extra bits for detecting errors at the
destination

Parity Check
A parity bit is added to every data unit so that the total number
of 1s(including the parity bit) becomes even for even-parity
check or odd for odd-parity check

Detection -examples
Example 1
Suppose the sender wants to send the word world. In
ASCII the five characters are coded as
1110111 1101111 1110010 1101100 1100100
The following shows the actual bits sent
11101110 11011110 11100100 11011000 11001001

Example 2
Now suppose the word world in Example 1 is received by
the receiver without being corrupted in transmission.
11101110 11011110 11100100 11011000
11001001
The receiver counts the 1s in each character and comes up
with even numbers (6, 6, 4, 4, 4). The data are accepted.

Example 3
Now suppose the word world in Example 1 is corrupted
during transmission.
11111110 11011110 11101100 11011000
11001001
The receiver counts the 1s in each character and comes up
with even and odd numbers (7, 6, 5, 4, 4). The receiver
knows that the data are corrupted, discards them, and asks
for retransmission.

Example 4
Suppose the following block is sent:

10101010
However, it is hit by a burst noise of length 8, and some
bits are corrupted.

Detection(cont’d)
To create the checksum the sender does the following:
The unit is divided into K sections, each of n bits.
Section 1 and 2 are added together using one’s
complement.
Section 3 is added to the result of the previous step.
Section 4 is added to the result of the previous step.
The process repeats until section k is added to the result
of the previous step.
The final result is complemented to make the checksum.

10.3 Error Correction
~ can be handled in two ways
when an error is discovered, the receiver can have the
sender retransmit the entire data unit.
a receiver can use an error-correcting code, which
automatically corrects certain errors.

The secret of error correction is to locate the invalid bit
or bits

Error Correction(cont’d)
If the total number of bits in a transmittable unit is m+r,
then r must be able to indicate at least m+r+1 different
states
2r m + r + 1
ex) For value of m is 7(ASCII), the smallest r value that
can satisfy this equation is 4

Multiple-Bit Error Correction
redundancy bits calculated on overlapping sets of data
units can also be used to correct multiple-bit errors.
Ex) to correct double-bit errors, we must take into consideration
that two bits can be a combination of any two bits in the entire
sequence
