Comma-free code
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A comma-free code is block code in which no concatenation of two code words contains a valid code word that overlaps both.[1]
Comma-free codes are also known as self-synchronizing block codes[2] because no synchronization is required to find the beginning of a code word.
