One positive side-effect of bipolar encoding is that a bipolar violation (two consecutive + pulses or two consecutive —pulses separated by any number of zeros) indicates to the receiver that an error has occurred in , upon the receipt of such a violation, the receiver does not know which bit is in error (only that an error hasoccurred).
