Abstract
Systematic codes capable of detecting burst unidrectional errors of length up to 2r−1using r check bits where r ≥ 3 are presented. Moreover, b-adjacent unidirectional error-detecting codes using [log2(b + 1)] check bits are also described. These codes are shown to be optimal or near optimal. The encoding/decoding and the totally self- checking checker design methods for these codes are also given.
