Torna indietro

Abstract

The errors that may occur in numerical transmitted data on a channel (240, 260) affected by burst errors, are corrected via the operations of: - ordering the numerical data in blocks each comprising a definite number (k) of data packets; - generating for each block a respective set of error-correction packets comprising a respective number (n-k) of correction packets, said respective number identifying a level of redundancy for correcting the errors; and - modifying dynamically the level of redundancy according to the characteristics of the bursts and of the correct-reception intervals between two bursts. Preferential application is on local networks, such as W-LANs for use in the domestic environments
