  • Abstract
    Binary block codes are constructed that are capable of correcting, in every t \\geq 3 consecutive words, either one substitution error in each one of, at the most, t-2 words, or one synchronization error (but not both). In order to decode any one word, the decoder needs to wait for the reception of, at the most, the next t-1 words.
