The final code after encoding data bits 1101 into 7-bit even parity Ha...
The given question belongs to the field of electronics and communication engineering and specifically deals with Hamming Code. Hamming Code is a technique used for error detection and correction in data transmission.
To understand the answer, let's break down the steps involved in encoding the data bits using Hamming Code:
1. Identify the number of parity bits required:
- The number of parity bits needed is determined by the formula 2^r ≥ m + r + 1, where r is the number of parity bits and m is the number of data bits.
- In this case, we have 4 data bits (1101), so we need to find the smallest value of r that satisfies the equation. By substituting different values of r, we find that r = 3 is the minimum value that satisfies the equation.
2. Insert the data bits into the encoded bit positions:
- The data bits are inserted into the encoded bit positions, leaving spaces for the parity bits.
- The data bits are placed in the positions that are powers of 2 (1, 2, 4, 8, etc.), starting from the leftmost position.
- In this case, the data bits 1101 are inserted into the positions 1, 2, 4, and 8, respectively.
3. Calculate the value of each parity bit:
- Each parity bit is responsible for checking a specific set of bits, including itself.
- The value of each parity bit is determined by performing an XOR operation on the bits it checks.
- The parity bits are placed in the positions that are not powers of 2.
- In this case, the parity bits are placed in positions 3, 5, and 6, respectively.
4. Determine the value of each parity bit:
- The value of each parity bit is determined by counting the number of 1s in the positions it checks.
- If the count is even, the parity bit is set to 0. If the count is odd, the parity bit is set to 1.
- In this case, the count of 1s in positions 3, 5, and 6 is 2, 2, and 1, respectively.
- Therefore, the parity bits are set to 0, 0, and 1, respectively.
5. Combine the data bits and parity bits to form the final encoded code:
- The data bits and parity bits are combined to form the final encoded code.
- In this case, the final encoded code is 1010101.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 'C' (1010101).
