BCH Codes
BCH codes are a type of error-correcting code used in digital communications to detect and fix errors that occur during data transmission. They work by adding special check bits to the original data, creating a codeword that can be analyzed upon receipt to identify and correct a certain number of errors without needing retransmission. BCH (Bose–Chaudhuri–Hocquenghem) codes are valued for their strong error correction capabilities and efficiency, making them ideal for applications like data storage, satellite communication, and secure data transfer.
