Features: "Error Control Coding" provides a detailed and systematic introduction to the theory, techniques, and applications of various coding methods, along with their engineering application backgrounds and future prospects. The book is divided into 9 chapters, covering the following main content: an overview of error control coding systems, the performance, generation, and principles of convolutional codes, detailed encoding and decoding methods of linear block codes, the definition, characteristics, generation methods, and performance of cyclic codes, the concept of primitive polynomials, finite fields, the definition and structure of BCH codes, the generator polynomials, encoding and decoding methods, and Welch's algorithm of Reed-Solomon codes, various methods for calculating the performance of block codes, multilevel coding, and iterative decoding. This book bridges the gap between data communication and information theory, with a clear structure and focused content, making it highly suitable for students in communication and electronic engineering. It will also greatly benefit engineers in related fields.
