Second, one of the guiding principles of communications systems design is to split the signal processing into a chain of multiple independent blocks. Basic codes and shannons theorem siddhartha biswas abstract. It is possible to model the transmitted data as a string of 0s and 1s. The aim of channel coding is in some sense the contrary, namely to introduce redundancy that can be exploited to protect the information when be ing transmitted. At the transmit side, channel coding is referred to as encoder, where extra bits parity bits are added with the raw data before modulation.

We use the notation n,k,d for a linear n,k code with minimum distance, or equivalently, minimum weight d. Channel coding is often used in digital communication systems to protect the digital information from noise and interference and reduce the number of bit errors. Find materials for this course in the pages linked along the left. Introduction to the theory of errorcorrecting codes. At the receive side, channel coding is referred to as the decoder. The channel coding in a communication system, introduces redundancy with a control, so as to improve the reliability of the system.
