Abstract
In this paper a new 3-bit burst-error correcting code is proposed. Compared to a 1-bit error correcting Hamming code only two additional check bits are needed and compared to a 3-bit burst-error correcting Burton code the number of check bits can be reduced by 2. Since the proposed code is systematically designed by use of finite field algebra the code can be determined for an arbitrary word length and decoding is simple. Examples for different word length with up to about 1000 bits are described. The proposed code can correct single bit errors, adjacent two-bit errors, adjacent 3-bit errors and nearly adjacent 2-bit errors and may be useful for error correction in registers or register arrays, in combinational circuits and also in memories for which data-multiplexing is not used.
