Explain Types of Error with example.

Question: Explain Types of Error with example. 

Answer 

There are many reasons such as noise, cross-talk etc., which may help data to get corrupted
during transmission. Most of the applications would not function expectedly if they receive
erroneous data. Applications such as voice and video may not be that affected and with some
errors they may still function well.

Types of Errors

There may be three types of errors:

• Single bit error
  
  In a frame, there is only one bit, anywhere though, which is corrupt.
• Multiple bits error
  
  Frame is received with more than one bits in corrupted state.
• Burst error
  
  Frame contains more than1 consecutive bits corrupted.
