- Character stuffing:
- Same idea as bit-stuffing, but operates on bytes instead of bits.
Use reserved characters to indicate the start and end of a frame. For instance, use the two-character sequence DLE STX (Data-Link Escape, Start of TeXt) to signal the beginning of a frame, and the sequence DLE ETX (End of TeXt) to flag the frame's end.
Problem: What happens if the two-character sequence DLE ETX happens to appear in the frame itself?
Solution: Use character stuffing; within the frame, replace every occurrence of DLE with the two-character sequence DLE DLE. The receiver reverses the processes, replacing every occurrence of DLE DLE with a single DLE.
Example: If the frame contained ``A B DLE D E DLE'', the characters transmitted over the channel would be ``DLE STX A B DLE DLE D E DLE DLE DLE ETX''.
Disadvantage: character is the smallest unit that can be operated on; not all architectures are byte oriented.

Okay, now please explain to me how a frame like this:
"A B DLE D E DLE ETX"
would look like after sending.
sorry correction:
DLE STX A B DLE DLE D E DLE DLE ETX ETX DLE ETX
The Correct sequence should be:
DLE STX A B DLE DLE D E DLE DLE DLE ETX DLE ETX
DLR STX A B DLE DLE D E DLE DLE ETX DLE ETX
The correct sequence is
DLE STX A B DLE D E DLE DLE ETX DLE ETX
I'll understanding better here compared to my collage teaching, super sir I m also E&C engineering student
