Error Detection and Correction
Only one bit of a given data unit is changed
The least likely type of error in serial transmission
Single-bit error can happen in parallel transmission
Two or more bits in the data unit are changed
Most likely to happen in a serial transmission
Number of bits affected depends on the data rate and duration of noise
Four types of redundancy checks
VRC, LRC, and CRC: For use in the data link layer
Checksum: Used by upper layers
Often called a Parity Check
A parity bit is added to every data unit
Even-parity checking or odd-parity checking
Suppose “world” is received by the receiver without being corrupted:
Receiver counts the 1’s and passes it 1110111 w 1110111 0 6 1101111 o 1101111 0 6 1110010 r 1110010 0 4 1101100 l 1101100 0 4 1100100 d 1100100 1 4
Suppose “world” is received by the receiver corrupted:
Receiver counts the 1’s and rejects it 1110111 w 1111111 0 7 1101111 o 1101111 0 6 1110010 r 1110110 0 5 1101100 l 1101100 0 4 1100100 d 1100100 1 4
We have an Even Parity data unit where the total number of 1’s including the parity bit is ‘6’ : 1000111011
If 3 bits change value resulting parity will be odd and an error will be detected: 1111111011: 1’s = 9
If 2 bits change value resulting parity will still be even and error will not be detected: 1110111011: 1’s = 8
VRC cannot detect errors when the total number of bits changed are even
