Computer Science for IGCSE & O level - Data Transmission (Section 4 - No. 5)
In the ARQ process, how are errors detected?
By using a parity bit.
By having the receiver send the data back to the sender.
By detecting whether the data is changed during transmission.
By calculating a checksum on the data before transmission.
Explanation
ARQ uses checksums, or other error-detection codes, to identify if the data has been corrupted during transmission.
