6Error Detection <strong>and</strong> CorrectionCoding SchemesCoding techniques are used for several reasons: reduction <strong>of</strong> dc w<strong>and</strong>ering,suppression <strong>of</strong> intersymbol interference, <strong>and</strong> self-clocking capability. Theseproblems are <strong>of</strong> engineering interest in the transmission <strong>of</strong> digital data. Thecoding schemes discussed in this chapter are for error detection <strong>and</strong> correction,specifically forward error correction (FEC) techniques. FEC codes may bedivided into two classes <strong>of</strong> codes, namely, linear block codes <strong>and</strong> convolutionalcodes [1]. Depending on the intended use <strong>of</strong> codes, FEC enables thereceiver not only to detect errors but also to facilitate their correction.To enhance the reader’s underst<strong>and</strong>ing <strong>of</strong> the subject matter, we brieflyintroduce the principle <strong>of</strong> channel coding, followed by coding <strong>and</strong> decodingschemes. This arrangement enables the reader to move on to concreterealizations without great difficulty.Copyright © 2002 by Marcel Dekker, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
