== <span style="color: #FFFFFF;">Remembering</span> == * '''Channel Coding''' β The process of adding redundancy to a message so that errors caused by the channel can be detected and corrected. * '''Noise''' β Random interference in a communication channel (static, heat, radio interference). * '''Error Correction Code (ECC)''' β A mathematical code that allows a receiver to "Repair" a broken bit. * '''Check-sum''' β A simple number added to the end of a message to detect if any bits changed (but not necessarily fix them). * '''Parity Bit''' β A single bit added to a string to ensure the total number of "1s" is even or odd. * '''Hamming Distance''' β The number of bits that are different between two messages (the "Gap" between codes). * '''Block Code''' β A code that breaks a message into fixed-size "Chunks" and adds extra bits to each chunk. * '''Convolutional Code''' β A code that processes a continuous stream of bits and uses the "Memory" of previous bits to protect current ones. * '''Reed-Solomon Code''' β A powerful code used in CDs, DVDs, and QR codes that can fix "Bursts" of many errors in a row. * '''Shannon's Channel Capacity''' β The maximum rate at which information can be sent over a channel with zero errors. </div> <div style="background-color: #006400; color: #FFFFFF; padding: 20px; border-radius: 8px; margin-bottom: 15px;">
