In practical communication and computation systems, errors occur predominantly in adjacent positions rather than in a random manner. In this paper, we develop a stabilizer formalism for quantum burst error correction codes (QBECC) to combat such error patterns in the quantum regime. Our contributions are as follows. Firstly, we derive an upper bound for the correctable burst errors of QBECCs, t...

Mobile communication channels are subject to multipath fading, which in turn results in burst errors occurring in the transmitted bit stream. When the data is source coded video data, such errors will cause a rapid deterioration of the decoded image sequence. This paper presents a method for reducing the eeects of such errors on the H.263 coded bit stream using Rate Compatible Punctured Convolu...

from that of Gaussian. It may be noted that this characteristic of pseudo-error detectors was predicted by G ~ o d i n g (~) and may now be regarded as being confirmed.' Scrutiny of Figures 8, 9 and 10 indicates that the achieved stability of the multiplication factor is sufficient to estimate BER from the pseudo-error rate with an accuracy of about a factor of 10 in BER. In addition, the estim...

Non-binary Reed-Solomon (RS) codes represent a typical way to counteract the effects of error bursts in hard-disk drives (HDD). Recently, it has been demonstrated how q-ary low-density paritycheck (LDPC) codes can outperform RS codes through a proper construction of the parity check (PC) matrix. In this work, two matrix design schemes, based on the main definitions of erasure burst proposed in ...

In this paper, we consider consecutive burst transmission with burst loss recovery based on Forward Error Correction (FEC) in which redundant data is transmitted with multiple bursts. We propose two burst generation methods: Out-of Burst Generation (OBG) and In-Burst Generation (IBG). The OBG generates a redundant burst from redundant data, while the IBG reconstructs a burst from an original da...

Markov chains are a popular means to capture correlated random processes for characterization and analysis of error pattern or bursty traffic in data transmission. The performance evaluation of communication protocols based on Markov models is tractable with limited state space and often depends on efficient implementation. Simulation or other methods have to be adopted for system of higher com...

Using the MPEG-4 advanced audio coder (AAC) music as an example of streaming applications, we investigate the improvement of error performance for the streaming service by link-adaptation and power-control techniques in an enhanced general packet radio services (EGPRS) cellular network. A low packet error rate and variability are essential in providing a short error-burst length so that error c...

Regardless of the application, the way that data and information are disseminated is an important aspect in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). The wireless data dissemination protocol should often guarantee a minimum reliability requirement. In this regard and to well-balance the energy and reliability, the more important packets should be protected by more powerful error control codes than the l...
