 | | Multiplying this by the generous upper bound on the probability that this burst error is not detected, Pud(p*33), we get that the probability that a burst occurred at a specific position, and is not detected, is 7.79 x 10 ^{-46}. |
 | | For burst errors, by the simple examples that exist for three consecutive values that can produce an undetected burst, we take the factor to be at least the same. |
 | | Error detection, i.e., computing the CRC bits by the data and header parts that arrive, and comparing them with the CRC part that arrives together with them, can be done at the final, end-target node only, and the detected errors will include unwanted changes introduced by the intermediate nodes. |
