Error Detection and Correction using Hamming Code Algorithm: The Hamming code algorithm is a method used to detect and correct errors in data transmission. It adds extra bits, called parity bits, to the original data message. These parity bits are used to check Show more…

Sixteen-bit messages are transmitted using a Hamming code. How many check bits are needed to ensure that the receiver can detect and correct single-bit errors? Show the bit pattern transmitted for the message 1101001100110101. Assume that even parity is used in the Hamming code (15pt).

The simplest error detection scheme used in data communication is parity checking. Usually, messages sent consist of characters, with each character consisting of a number of bits (a bit is the smallest unit of information). In parity checking, a bit of either 1 or 0 is appended to the end of each character. The receiver checks the number of 1's in every character, and if the result is odd, it signals an error. Suppose that each bit is received correctly and independently of other bits with a probability of 0.999. What is the probability that a character is received in error but the error is not detected by the parity check?

Determine whether the given message is a code word in the Hamming $(7,4)$ code. If it is, decode it. If it is not, correct the single error and decode the corrected message. $$ \left(\begin{array}{lllllll} 1 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 1 \end{array}\right) $$
