==Error detection== Another benefit of bipolar encoding compared to unipolar is [[error detection]]. In the T-carrier example, the bipolar signals are regenerated at regular intervals so that signals diminished by distance are not just amplified, but detected and recreated anew. Weakened signals corrupted by noise could cause errors, a mark interpreted as zero, or zero as positive or negative mark. Every single-bit error results in a violation of the bipolar rule. Each such [[bipolar violation]] (BPV) is an indication of a transmission error. (The location of BPV is not necessarily the location of the original error).
