What is the minimal Hamming distance between any two correct codewords?
1
2
3
4
Correct Answer: C — 3
Explanation:
Since we use a generalized version of Hamming(7, 4) code, the minimal hamming distance is 3. It cannot correct burst errors.
The most common hamming codes are a generalized version of?
Hamming(7, 4) code
Hamming(8, 4) code
Hamming(6, 3) code
Hamming(5, 7) code
Correct Answer: A — Hamming(7, 4) code
Explanation:
The most common hamming codes generalize to form Hamming(7, 4) code. It encodes four bits of data into seven bits by adding three parity bits.
