Abstract

Error control describes how the network handles and detects errors especially in the data link layer. In this paper, we present on an overview of error control regarding error detection and error correction. Error control happens in data link layer. We mainly discuss the type of error detection mechanisms that is used to detect the errors and how the errors will be corrected so the receiver can extract the real data. At the end of this paper, the conclusion and the future work are presented.
