Parity bit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Type of bit parity Successful transmission scenario Even parity A wants to transmit: 1001 A computes parity bit value: 1+0+0+1 (mod 2) = 0 A adds parity bit and sends: 10010 B receives: 10010 B computes parity: 1+0+0+1+0 (mod 2) = 0 B reports correct ......
