Abstract

An error protection code which acts on subpictures for the transmission of television picture information. First the picture is subpicture-wise transformed (124) by means of transformation functions, for example, Hadamard functions. Of the coefficients thus formed, a number of most significant coefficient bits which are associated with low frequency transformation functions are protected against a bit error (126). Moreover, a comparatively small number of coefficient bits within said number are protected against an additional bit error.
