The weight of a codeword implicates the number nonzero elements in a binary block.Weight measurement structure shown in above figure, counts number of 1's in a 12-bit binary codeword.
Verilog code for weight measurement of a 12 bit binary codeword is given below
//verilog code for weight measurement of a 12 bit binary input
//Full Adder
module fad(a,b,c,s,cout);
input a,b,c;
output s,cout;
assign s=a^b^c;
assign cout=(a&b)|(b&c)|(c&a);
endmodule
//Two-bit Adder
module twoad1(a,b,s,c);

output [1:0]s,c;
assign s[0]=a[0]^b[0];
assign c[0]=a[0]&b[0];

assign c[1]=(a[1]&b[1])|(b[1]&c[0])|(
endmodule
//Three-bit Adder
module threead1(a,b,s,c);
input [2:0]a,b;
output [2:0]s,c;
assign s[0]=a[0]^b[0];
assign c[0]=a[0]&b[0];

end
endmodule
//This code counts the number of 1's in a 12 bit binary codeword.
For example input message is s = 1010_0010_0001;
then output will be x=0100 (4).
