Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

You receive a data frame with the contents '1101010'. If a single-bit error occurs, list all possible outcomes.

💡 Hint: Only one bit can change; consider each position in the frame.

Challenge 2 Hard

Compare the effectiveness of parity checks and CRC in detecting multiple bit errors. Provide scenarios for each.

💡 Hint: Review the strengths and weaknesses of both methods.
