In odd parity, the sender sets the parity bit to 1 if the count of 1-valued data bits in the character is even. This ensures that the total number of 1s in the character (including the parity bit) is always odd. Therefore, if any bit is flipped during transmission, the receiver can detect it based on the parity bit being incorrect.
