The conventional approach to coding for error correction is often impractical because of the required equipment complexity and the system vulnerability to changes in channel conditions, such as fading or burst-type noise. These problems can be solved by employing long codes with feedback, correcting only small numbers of errors, and utilizing appropriate feedback techniques. The resulting system yields essentially error-free performance under all conditions, is relatively efficient, and compares very favorably in cost.
