Abstract: An error control encoding method and a mobile data communication system using the method in a moving body communication system such as mobile telephone for effecting data communication through a fading channel dominated by a burst error, upon receiving data transmitted from the transmitting side on the receiving side, detects any error involved in said received data as a frame error rate involved in block data or a bit error rate in the block data and thereby changes the frame length in response to the detected error rates. The mobile data communication system employs the error control encoding method wherein a frame length employed in the transmitting part is changed in response to the extent of any involved error in the received data detected by the remote receiving part.

Abstract: An error correcting encoding method and a vehicle data communication apparatus based on the same for use in data communication via fading communication channels dominated by burst errors in the data communication among vehicles such as automobiles are disclosed. The error correction encoding method detects, as data sent from a transmitting side is received by a receiving side, any error contained in the received data as a frame error rate of error frames involved in block data or a bit error rate of error bits involved in the block data and selects an error correcting code in response to the frame error rate for encoding. The vehicle data communication apparatus according to the present invention profitably employs the method, and changes an error correcting code to be used on the transmitting side in response to the extent of errors involved in the received data detected by the receiving side of a remote apparatus.
