Improvements in coding algorithms allow weaker signals to be decoded at the same data rate or higher data rates at the same signal to noise ratio. Such an improvement was the subject of an article ...

This provided the impetus for researchers to develop the error detection and correction codes discussed here. Without FEC the world would be quite different.

CIO Blast from the Past takes a journey through 60 years of information theory and discovers how the Hamming code legacy lives on today.
