Abstract
Error correction codes are an important help to ensure that the PUF provides reliable outputs. This chapter presents some information about PUF-related error correction topics. In the first part some error correction basics are provided. The second part describes different error correction codes like the Hamming code or the repetition code. In the final part PUF-specific error correction is presented. This includes an approach to a two-phase error correction scheme to handle the high error rates that are often produced by PUFs.
