Question No. 1: (Marks 10)
Suppose a Branch 1 of a bank transmits a message containing five characters to Branch 2 of a bank using Even
Parity encoding to ensure data integrity during transmission. Each character consists of 8 bits encoded in the
ASCII. Branch 2 of a bank receives the message of five 9-bit data elements and needs to extract the 8-bit data
message from each element and decode it using ASCII to form meaningful words. The data elements received by
Branch 2 of a bank are:
Received 9-bit Data Elements:
011101011 110110000 011100011 111100100
101101011
Assuming the data is received correctly without any errors by Branch 2 of a bank, you are required to
do the following tasks:
1. Extract 8-bit Data Message: Remove the Parity bits to extract the 8-bit data message from each 9-bit
received element.
2. Decode and Extract using ASCII: Convert each 8-bit data message into its corresponding ASCII
character to extract the meaningful words.
Give your answer in the following table:
