Method: “eight” is not so complex as to justify resorting to notation in figures
Method: “two” and “eight” are not so complex as to justify resorting to notation in figures
Line 54:
* Up to 1 bit of triplet in error, or
* up to 2 bits of triplet omitted (cases not shown in table).
Though simple to implement and widely used, this [[triple modular redundancy]] is a relatively inefficient ECC. Better ECC codes typically examine the last several tens or even the last several hundreds of previously received bits to determine how to decode the current small handful of bits (typically in groups of 2two to 8eight bits).
