Error Correction Codes are required to have a reliable communication within a channel having an unacceptable bit error rate and low SNR (signal to noise ratio). Channel coding for error detection and correction helps communication system designers in reduction of effects caused due to noise in the transmission channel. There exist two main forms of channel codesblock codes and convolution codes. Block code is further classified into linear and cyclic code. In this paper, we have analyzed the

All simulation was done using MATLAB R2011b Simulink software.
