Consider a Binary Symmetric Channel (BSC) with probability of error being 'p'. To transit a bit, say 1, we transmit a sequence of three 1s. The receiver will interpret the received sequence to represent 1 if at least two bits are 1. The probability that the transmitted bit will be received in error is
A
$${p^3} + 3{p^2}\left( {1 - p} \right)$$
B
$${p^3}$$
C
$${\left( {1 - p} \right)^3}$$
D
$${p^3} + {p^2}\left( {1 - p} \right)$$
