Abstract:
This study demonstrates the implementation of the Hamming code using DNA-based nanostructures for error detection and correction in communication systems. The designed DNA nanostructures conduct logical operations to compute check codes and identify and correct erroneous data based on fluorescence signals. The execution of intricate DNA logic operations requires individuals with specialized training. By interpretation of the fluorescence signals generated by the DNA nanostructures, binary language can be extracted, effectively protecting data security. The findings highlight the potential of DNA as a versatile platform for reliable data transmission.
