jdp.5.3.13928 A Hamming Code Based Single Bit Error Detection and Correction for 128 or 256 Bits Vinita Malviya Soumya Gupta Hardik Thakkar Dharmendra Singh Journal on Digital Signal Processing 2322–0368 5 3 1 4 jdp.5.3.13928 Single Bit Error, Burst Error, Hamming Code, Parity Bit, Even Parity, Odd Parity An error in data communication is very common and it cannot be avoided. The error is of two types, such as single bit and burst error, which is depends upon noise present in the path via the data, is transferred. There are various method used for the detection of this error, and this is done on the basis of even or odd parity. In this paper, a hamming code technique is used to detect and correct the single bit error. An extra bit is sent to receive along with the original data known as a parity bit, this is also done on the basis of even or odd parity. This extra bit will enhance the security of the data being transferred. July - September 2017 Copyright © 2017 i-manager publications.
