Abstract :
Optimal binary cyclic redundancy-check codes with 16 parity bits (CRC-16 codes) are presented and compared to those in existing standards for minimum-distance, undetected-error probability on binary symmetric channels (BSCs) and properness. The codes in several cases are seen to be superior at block lengths of practical interest when they are used on low-noise BSCs. The optimum minimum distance obtainable by some CRC-16 codes is determined for all block lengths. For several typical low-noise BSCs the minimum undetected error probability achievable with some CRC-16 codes is given for all block lengths
