PARITY BIT

PARITY BIT

Majority of modern communication is Digital in nature i.e., it is a combination of 1’s and 0’s. The digital data is transmitted either through wires (in case of wired communication) or wireless. Even in an advanced mode of communication, there will be errors while transmitting data (due to noise).

The simplest of errors is corruption of a bit i.e., a 1 may be transmitted as a 0 or vice-versa. To confirm whether the received data is the intended data or not, we should be able to detect errors at the receiver.

The parity generating technique is one of the most widely used error detection techniques for the data transmission. In digital systems, when binary data is transmitted and processed, data may be subjected to noise so that such noise can alter 0s (of data bits) to 1s and 1s to 0s.

Hence, a Parity Bit is added to the word containing data in order to make number of 1s either even or odd. The message containing the data bits along with parity bit is transmitted from transmitter to the receiver.

At the receiving end, the number of 1s in the message is counted and if it doesn’t match with the transmitted one, it means there is an error in the data. Thus, the Parity Bit it is used to detect errors, during the transmission of binary data.
