The paper deals with repeated low-density burst error detecting codes with a specified weight or less. Linear codes capable of detecting such errors have been studied. Further codes capable of correcting and simultaneously detecting such errors have also been dealt with. The paper obtains lower and upper bounds on the number of parity-check digits required for such codes. An example of such a code has also been provided.

Keywords: error detecting code, burst error, low-density burst error, repeated low-density burst error
