Suppоse yоu аre trying tо communicаte bits. The bits you аre sending are sometimes received correctly, and sometimes they get toggled. The probability that each bit will get toggled is p=[p], and bits get toggled independently. In order to reduce errors, we repeat each bit 3 times. So instead of transmitting a 0, we transmit 000, and instead of transmitting a 1, we transmit a 111. At the receiver side, we receive a 3-bit string which can be any combination of bits due to errors. After receiving the 3 bits, the receiver will do "majority combining". This means that the receiver will decide on the bit that is repeated most often. For example, if the receiver receives a 001, it will decide on a 0. If it receives a 111, it will decide on a 1, if it receives a 110, it decides on a 1 etc. Assuming a 000 is transmitted, what is the probability that the receiver majority combining decision will be an error? Hint: An error occurs if two bits get toggled. Two bits can get toggled 3 ways. An error also occurs if all 3 bits get toggled. That can happen only one way.
