Decoding of a restricted M-of-N code

摘要

A method for communication between a sender and a receiver, including receiving data in the form of an M-of-N code, where the M-of-N code includes a first component of length n₁ and a second component of length n₂; decoding data in which the first component is an m₁-of-n₁ code and the second component is an m₂-of-n₂ code; and decoding data in which the first component is an m₃-of-n₁ code where m₁<>m₃ and the second component is an m₄-of-n₂ code where m₂<>m₄.
