A cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is an error-detecting code commonly used in digital networks and storage devices to detect accidental changes to digital data. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Blocks of data entering these systems get a short check value attached, based on the remainder of a polynomial division of their contents.
Given a prime number q and prime power q m with positive integers m and d such that d ≤ q m − 1, a primitive narrow-sense BCH code over the finite field (or Galois field) GF(q) with code length n = q m − 1 and distance at least d is constructed by the following method.
Proof. We need to prove that if you add a burst of length to a codeword (i.e. to a polynomial that is divisible by ()), then the result is not going to be a codeword (i.e. the corresponding polynomial is not divisible by ()).
Computation of a cyclic redundancy check is derived from the mathematics of polynomial division, modulo two. In practice, it resembles long division of the binary message string, with a fixed number of zeroes appended, by the "generator polynomial" string except that exclusive or operations replace subtractions.
A quasi-cyclic code has the property that for some s, any cyclic shift of a codeword by s places is again a codeword. [9] A double circulant code is a quasi-cyclic code of even length with s=2. [9] Quasi-twisted codes and multi-twisted codes are further generalizations of constacyclic codes. [10] [11]
All practical CRC generator polynomials have non-zero and coefficients. It is very common to convert this to a string of binary bits by omitting the coefficient.. This bit string may then be converted to a binary number using one of two conventions:
Low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes are a class of highly efficient linear block codes made from many single parity check (SPC) codes. They can provide performance very close to the channel capacity (the theoretical maximum) using an iterated soft-decision decoding approach, at linear time complexity in terms of their block length.
By far the most popular FCS algorithm is a cyclic redundancy check (CRC), used in Ethernet and other IEEE 802 protocols with 32 bits, in X.25 with 16 or 32 bits, in HDLC with 16 or 32 bits, in Frame Relay with 16 bits, [3] in Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) with 16 or 32 bits, and in other data link layer protocols.
