Abstract :
The fundamental theory of t-error correcting, k-error detecting, and d-unidirectional error detecting codes with d>k>t (t-EC/k-ED/d-UED codes) is presented. The authors give a family of methods for designing systematic t-EC/ k-ED/d-UED codes, with d>k>t, and they reveal the methods which give the more efficient, with respect to redundancy, codes for the various values of t, k, and d. The error detection and correction algorithm is also presented
