Some complicated intermediate steps shortened or eliminated. Decoding of convolutional error-correcting digital codes simplified by new errortrellis syndrome technique. In new technique, syndrome vector not computed. Instead, advantage taken of newly-derived mathematical identities simplify decision tree, folding it back on itself into form called "error trellis." This trellis graph of all path solutions of syndrome equations. Each path through trellis corresponds to specific set of decisions as to received digits. Existing decoding algorithms combined with new mathematical identities reduce number of combinations of errors considered and enable computation of correction vector directly from data and check bits as received.
