Abstract
This thesis is concerned with cyclic block codes which
can "be used for the detection and correction of errors in
a transmitted message which are produced "by various types
of noise. Computer programs were developed and used for the
actual encoding and decoding process. Advantages of using
the computer as against using various types of dedicated
hardware is demonstrated. Two different methods of decoding
are presented: the minimum distance decoder and the syndrome
method decoder. Pseudo random noise sequences were also generated
by computer program and used to simulate noise disturbance
of the encoded transmitted message. Codes of several
rates and with varying degrees of simulated channel noise
were studied and compared with respect to the probability of
error. It is shown how the methods developed in this thesis
can materially help in choosing the 'best' code for a given
noisy channel, consonant with other specified parameters for
message transmission.
