Error-Correcting Codes and Finite Fields

Meer over het boek

Engineers and computer scientists will find essential tools for implementing modern error-processing techniques, with the book requiring only a basic understanding of linear algebra. It intertwines mathematical theory with practical coding examples, starting with the fundamentals of coding theory. Subsequent sections delve into finite fields and detailed discussions on BCH and Reed-Solomon codes, followed by Goppa codes and the Skorobogatov-Vladut error processor. A notable feature is the accessible yet rigorous exploration of curve geometry.
