  • Abstract
    About 2000 hours of noise data on various digital data telephone links are analyzed with respect to the applicability of coding theory to such links. The analysis indicates that coding for error correction is inefficient for such systems, but that coding for error detection, along with feedback, is remarkably simple and effective.
