Forward Error Correction




<algorithm> (FEC) A class of methods for controling errors in a one-way communication system.

FEC sends extra information along with the data, which can be used by the receiver to check and correct the data.

A CPU writing data to RAM is a kind of one-way communication - see error correcting memory and error checking and correction.
