When a Hamming code 0110001 is received, which position indicates the error based on the checksum bits calculated?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking us to determine which position identifies an error in a received Hamming code based on checksum bits. To solve it, we would need to analyze the received code and the specific parity bits that correspond to the positions provided.
Answer
6th position.
The final answer is the 6th position.
Answer for screen readers
The final answer is the 6th position.
More Information
The received Hamming code 0110001 indicates an error at position 6 when the parity bits are recalculated and the syndrome vector is generated.
Tips
A common mistake is to miscalculate the parity bits; ensure to correctly follow the pattern for each parity bit check sequence.
