Handling burst errors, block vs convolutional interleavers.
Interleaving Techniques Quiz
Test your knowledge of block and convolutional interleaving for burst error correction.
Question 1 of 3
Q1.A block interleaver has parameters (n, B) where n is the codeword length and B is the interleaving depth. What is the maximum burst error length it can correct, assuming the underlying code corrects single symbol errors?
