Bose–Chaudhuri–Hocquenghem (BCH) Codes

Bose–Chaudhuri–Hocquenghem (BCH) codes are advanced error-correcting codes used in digital communication and storage. They add extra bits to data to detect and fix errors that may occur during transmission or recording. By carefully choosing these bits based on mathematical principles, BCH codes can identify multiple errors and correct them automatically, ensuring data integrity. They are highly efficient and flexible, making them suitable for applications like CDs, DVDs, and satellite communications, where reliable data transfer is critical.
