Methods, systems, and apparatus, including medium-encoded computer program products, for communicating information. In general, one or more aspects of the subject matter described in this specification can be embodied in one or more methods that include obtaining supplemental information to be sent along with primary information over a block erasure channel; calculating numerical residuals for the supplemental information using corresponding prime numbers; outputting the numerical residuals to be sent along with the primary information over the block erasure channel for recovery of the supplemental information at a recipient device using a proper subset of the prime numbers; receiving a proper subset of numerical residuals that were calculated, using corresponding prime numbers, for supplemental information associated with primary information, the primary information and the numerical residuals having been sent over a block erasure channel; and recovering the supplemental information using the proper subset of numerical residuals. |
