DATA INVERSION AND UNIDIRECTIONAL ERROR DETECTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17897186 titled 'DATA INVERSION AND UNIDIRECTIONAL ERROR DETECTION

Simplified Explanation

    • Explanation:**

The patent application describes methods, apparatuses, and non-transitory machine-readable media for data inversion and unidirectional error detection. An apparatus includes a memory device and a processing device that encodes binary data bits in an information word, uses a unidirectional error detecting code to encode the information word, writes the encoded information word to the memory device, reads it back, and detects errors using the error detecting code. The encoding involves inverting the binary data bits and adding an inversion data bit to the information word.

    • Potential Applications:**
  • Data storage systems
  • Communication systems
  • Error detection and correction systems
    • Problems Solved:**
  • Ensuring data integrity during storage and transmission
  • Detecting errors in a unidirectional manner
  • Improving reliability of data encoding and decoding processes
    • Benefits:**
  • Enhanced data security and reliability
  • Efficient error detection and correction
  • Simplified data encoding and decoding processes


Original Abstract Submitted

Methods, apparatuses, and non-transitory machine-readable media associated with a data inversion and unidirectional error detection are described. An apparatus for data inversion and unidirectional error detection can include a memory device and a processing device communicatively coupled to the memory device. The processing device can be configured to encode a plurality of binary data bits in an information word, encode the information word using a unidirectional error detecting code, write the encoded information word to the memory device, read the encoded information word from the memory device, and detect an error in the information word using a unidirectional error detecting code. The encoding can include inverting the plurality of binary data bits and adding an inversion data bit to the information word.
