Line 115:

For reliable [[clock recovery]] at the receiver, a [[Run-length limited|run-length limitation]] may be imposed on the generated channel sequence, i.e., the maximum number of consecutive ones or zeros is bounded to a reasonable number. A clock period is recovered by observing transitions in the received sequence, so that a maximum run length guarantees sufficient transitions to assure clock recovery quality.

RLL codes are defined by four main parameters: ''m'', ''n'', ''d'', ''k''. The first two, ''m''/''n'', refer to the rate of the code, while the remaining two specify the minimal ''d'' and maximal ''k'' number of zeroeszero's between consecutive ones. This is used in both [[telecommunication]] and storage systems that move a medium past a fixed [[recording head]].<ref>{{Cite journal
