Which among the following is a false statement ?

  • A.Channel encoder is to modify the binary stream in such a way that errors in the received signals can be detected and possibly corrected
  • B.If the error can be corrected at a receiver without the need to request a retransmission of a message is referred as forward error correction
  • C.In block encoding the bit stream is partitioned into binary words
  • D.Binary words from the source will be referred as codewords and those from the channel encoder as data words

Answer: D

The false statement is binary words from the source will be referred as codewords and those from the channel encoder as data words.

The terms are the other way round. The binary words coming from the source are the data words (messages). The channel encoder adds redundant bits to each data word, and its output words are the codewords.

The other statements are true. A channel encoder adds redundancy so that errors can be detected and possibly corrected. Correcting errors at the receiver without asking for retransmission is forward error correction. In block coding the bit stream is divided into blocks (binary words) that are encoded separately.
