Last month I showed how coding and error correction allows next-generation broadcast technologies such as DVB-T2 and DVB-NGH to achieve performance very close to the ...

To wrap up our recent series of articles on VESA video compression codecs, this month we will look at the use of video compression on digital display interfaces, using the DisplayPort 1.4 standard as ...

Foundational to the work on quantum error correction (QEC) are logical qubits, which are created by entangling multiple ...

With these 32 bytes RS can correct errors in 16 bytes of the message. This means a single bit, or all eight bits, can be wrong in 16 different bytes and the RS will correct them. The number of parity ...

This year’s Q2B meeting took place at the end of last month in Paris at the Cité des Sciences et de l’Industrie, a science museum in the north-east of the city. The event brought together more than ...

There’s widespread agreement that most useful quantum computing will have to wait for the development of error-corrected qubits. Error correction involves ...

Quantum error correction protocols eliminate uncontrolled errors that affect fragile quantum-superposition states by encoding these quantum states into a larger ...
