Forward Error Correction (FEC) is a popular method of error control in networks where bandwidth utilization is a secondary issue. (FEC transmits information using a redundant coding that allows full recovery of the data even in cases where some parts of the transmission were not delivered). Can FEC fully replace the standard timeout/acknowledgment-based error control mechanisms? Explain your answer.

Answer: NO

Step-by-step explanation:

FEC transmits information using a redundant coding that allows full recovery of the data even in cases where some parts of the transmission were not delivered.FEC cannot be always the alternative for standard timeout/acknowledgment-based error control mechanisms. One of the reasons is that it can recover full data only when some part of transmission is not delivered.
