Combinatorics
Code rate is a measure used in coding theory that represents the efficiency of an error-correcting code by comparing the amount of information transmitted to the total number of bits sent. It is defined as the ratio of the number of information bits to the total number of bits, including redundant bits added for error correction. A higher code rate indicates a more efficient use of bandwidth, while a lower code rate typically offers greater error correction capabilities.
congrats on reading the definition of code rate. now let's actually learn it.
