Abstract :
A new block code is introduced which is capable of correcting multiple insertion, deletion and substitution errors present in a single block. An inner code resilient to synchronisation errors provides soft inputs to an outer code capable of correcting substitution errors. The decoder does not require knowledge of the block boundaries
