In data transmission and telecommunications, bit stuffing is the insertion into bit data that does not contain information. Bits resulting from bit stuffing should not be confused with overhead bits.

Bit stuffing is used for a variety of purposes, such as filling buffers or frames. The location of the stuffing bits is communicated to the receiver of the communication, and after receiving, the stuffing bits are removed to restore the bit stream to its original form. Referencingchange the code
