Combined Data Compression and Error Correction |
The primary objective of the project is to familiarize with the concepts of data compression

and error correction. The project intends to analyze the impact of data compression on error
propagation. As the data is compressed more, error propagation through the transmission
channel increases. When this data is decoded, it will bear no resemblance to the original data
being transmitted. To reduce error propagation, it is necessary that the data is not compressed
to a great extent. Another main aspect which the project intends to investigate is the best
combination of compression and error correction that is likely to make data being transmitted
to be sufficiently compressed and also less prone to errors.
