Cyclic redundancy codes (CRC) are a type of checksum commonly used to detect errors in data transmission. For instance, every Ethernet packet that brought you the web page you’re reading now carried ...

Error detection determines if the data received through a medium is corrupted during transmission. To accomplish this, the transmitter uses a function to calculate a ...

CRC Errors, Class 3 Discards, Code Violation Errors & Loss of Sync – Why Storage Isn’t Always to Blame! Storage is often automatically pinpointed as the source of all problems. From System Admins, ...

As my ADSL provider allows me to choose my SNR and whether or not to use interleaving I'm trying to find a good balance. However I want to see if there's some general rule of thumb which can be ...

A Cisco switch connected to Cisco PIX firewall via cat5. The switch-side sees CRCs, the firewall side doesn't. Both are hard-set for 100/full. Is this just likely a bad cable, or could it be something ...

This idea presents PLD code that can be used to generate arbitrary polynomial cyclic-redundancy-check (CRC) functions. Communication systems often use CRCs to detect transmission errors. CRC functions ...

Just as with the CRC codes they use a polynomial to encode the input bits to create the output stream. Short convolutional codes readily lend themselves to hardware encoding. For our {7, 3, 3} code a ...
