The number of errors that can be corrected without erasure information is
A. Dmin+1
B. Dmin – 1
C. (Dmin+1)/2
D. (Dmin – 1)/2
Answer:A
The number of errors that can be corrected without erasure information is
A. Dmin+1 B. Dmin – 1 C. (Dmin+1)/2 D. (Dmin – 1)/2
Explanation: If a code has a minimum distance dmin then dmin-1 erasures can be reconstituted. The number of errors that can be corrected without erasure information is (dmin-1)/2.
