SC IJPE 22Title: A Performability Aspect of Tandem CRCs' Undetected Burst Errors Author: Meng-Lai Yin, Electrical and Computer Engineering, California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, USA, and Raytheon Network Centric Systems, Specialty Engineering, Fullerton, USA Received on: August 17, 2009Abstract: This article presents the conditional probability of undetected burst errors for tandem Cyclic Redundancy Codes (CRCs) from a performability point of view. The precondition is that a burst error with length longer than the guaranteed detectable length has occurred. This presentation demonstrates the applicability and usefulness of the performability framework.Status: Accepted, being published in IJPE, Vol. 6, No. 5, September 2010, pp. 535-538.
