Channel Coding Terminology

Throughout this section, the information to be encoded consists of message symbols and the code that is produced consists of codewords.

Each block of K message symbols is encoded into a codeword that consists of N message symbols. K is called the message length, N is called the codeword length, and the code is called an [N,K] code.
