Dual product codes for correction of multiple low-density burst errors

In many communication channels noise disturbances occur in the form of low-density bursts. Codes capable of correcting multiple bursts of low density are efficient tools of error control for such channels. One such class of codes is presented ia this paper. This Class of codes can be decoded by simple majority logic. The approach is to use codes which are the duals of product codes whose component codes are majority-logic-decodable cyclic codes.
