Abstract
This paper is concerned with burst error, burst erasure and combined burst-error and burst-erasure correction. Part I introduces the concept of burst distance and subsequently develops burst-correcting properties of a code relative to its burst distance. Part II discusses product codes for multiple-burst correction (MBC). The MBC properties of a product of two codes are derived from the properties of the original codes. The correction of spot errors is generalized to multiple-spot correction. Theorems are presented which strengthen the single-burst correcting (SBC) properties of some codes. A class of codes which corrects single, triple and quadruple bursts and 5 single errors is developed, and a decoding procedure is given. Finally, a code from the new class of MBC codes is compared with three other MBC codes.
