Space–time block codeSpace–time block coding is a technique used in wireless communications to transmit multiple copies of a data stream across a number of antennas and to exploit the various received versions of the data to improve the reliability of data transfer. The fact that the transmitted signal must traverse a potentially difficult environment with scattering, reflection, refraction and so on and may then be further corrupted by thermal noise in the receiver means that some of the received copies of the data may be closer to the original signal than others.
Error correction codeIn computing, telecommunication, information theory, and coding theory, forward error correction (FEC) or channel coding is a technique used for controlling errors in data transmission over unreliable or noisy communication channels. The central idea is that the sender encodes the message in a redundant way, most often by using an error correction code or error correcting code (ECC). The redundancy allows the receiver not only to detect errors that may occur anywhere in the message, but often to correct a limited number of errors.
Concatenated error correction codeIn coding theory, concatenated codes form a class of error-correcting codes that are derived by combining an inner code and an outer code. They were conceived in 1966 by Dave Forney as a solution to the problem of finding a code that has both exponentially decreasing error probability with increasing block length and polynomial-time decoding complexity. Concatenated codes became widely used in space communications in the 1970s.
Couche physiquevignette|Exemple d'interconnexions en niveau de couche physique Dans le domaine des réseaux informatiques, la couche physique est la première couche du modèle OSI (de l'anglais Open Systems Interconnection, « Interconnexion de systèmes ouverts »). La couche physique est chargée de la transmission effective des signaux électriques, radiofréquences ou optiques entre les interlocuteurs. Son service est généralement limité à l'émission et la réception d'un bit ou d'un train de bits continu (notamment pour les supports synchrones comme la fibre optique).
Couche transportthumb|Position de la couche transport dans le modèle ISO et dans TCP-IP En réseaux, la couche dite de transport constitue la quatrième couche du modèle OSI. Cette couche regroupe l'ensemble des protocoles chargés de la gestion des erreurs et du contrôle des flux réseaux. Les deux principaux protocoles utilisés sont les protocoles TCP et UDP. Modèle OSI La couche transport gère les communications de bout en bout entre processus. Cette couche est souvent la plus haute couche où on se préoccupe de la correction des erreurs.
Codes de parité à faible densitéDans la théorie de l'information, un contrôle de parité de faible densité LDPC est un code linéaire correcteur d'erreur, permettant la transmission d'information sur un canal de transmission bruité. LDPC est construit en utilisant un graphe biparti clairsemé. Les codes LDPC ont une capacité approchant la limite théorique. À l'aide de techniques itératives de propagation d'information sur la donnée transmise et à décoder, les codes LDPC peuvent être décodés en un temps proportionnel à leur longueur de bloc.
Quality (business)In business, engineering, and manufacturing, quality – or high quality – has a pragmatic interpretation as the non-inferiority or superiority of something (goods or services); it is also defined as being suitable for the intended purpose (fitness for purpose) while satisfying customer expectations. Quality is a perceptual, conditional, and somewhat subjective attribute and may be understood differently by different people. Consumers may focus on the specification quality of a product/service, or how it compares to competitors in the marketplace.
Link layerIn computer networking, the link layer is the lowest layer in the Internet protocol suite, the networking architecture of the Internet. The link layer is the group of methods and communications protocols confined to the link that a host is physically connected to. The link is the physical and logical network component used to interconnect hosts or nodes in the network and a link protocol is a suite of methods and standards that operate only between adjacent network nodes of a network segment.
Designvignette|Chaise de Charles Rennie Mackintosh, 1897. Le design, le stylisme ou la stylique est une activité de création souvent à vocation industrielle ou commerciale, pouvant s’orienter vers les milieux sociaux, politiques, scientifiques et environnementaux. Le but premier du design est d’inventer, d’améliorer ou de faciliter l’usage ou le processus d’un élément ayant à interagir avec un produit ou un service matériel ou virtuel.
Space–time codeA space–time code (STC) is a method employed to improve the reliability of data transmission in wireless communication systems using multiple transmit antennas. STCs rely on transmitting multiple, redundant copies of a data stream to the receiver in the hope that at least some of them may survive the physical path between transmission and reception in a good enough state to allow reliable decoding. Space time codes may be split into two main types: Space–time trellis codes (STTCs) distribute a trellis code over multiple antennas and multiple time-slots and provide both coding gain and diversity gain.
