Purpose: Security
A technique to secure your data
Provides privacy
Prevents unauthorized users from understanding messages and
injecting false messages
What could be the simplest encryption coding scheme?
Watch movie The Imitation Game based on an encryption
scheme ENIGMA used by Germans in WW2 for their
communications.

Purpose: Adds extra information (redundant bits) to make the system more
prone to noise, interference and other channel impairments
Previously discussed that channel introduces noise which results in probability of
false detection (when transmitted bit is 0 but received/detected/decided bit is 1)
Transforms signal symbols (in form of 1s ,0s) of bits K to channel symbols of bits N
where N is always greater than K
Example:
Hoffmann (7,4) code
Transforms a 4 bit source symbol to a 7 bit channel symbol
Channel codes are generated using specific algorithms
