From the similar considerations one can find out an expression which will be H CT = 0 where H C and 0 are all vectors H : (n-k) x n parity-check matrix. H CG therefore will be equal to 0. Typically one tries to find out what the values of x matrix is in a particular application.
Now we transmit a code vector, which is T, the channel introduces an error to this particular code vector and so, when we receive a word, then we can say that R equals to C plus E. Now we have already seen that H CT equals to 0, that means when H RT is equal to 0 we will say that no error has occurred. But if H RT is not equal to 0 we will say that an error has occurred, or errors have occurred and this value of H RT is called ST or syndrome, where S is the syndrome. In general, it is easy to find syndrome using some kind of a LFSR and the associated circuitry.
