Title:
AN APPARATUS FOR PROCESSING OTN FRAMES UTILIZING AN EFFICIENT FORWARD ERROR CORRECTION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2003063516
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
An apparatus and method utilizing an efficient forward error correction (FEC), targeted for processing optical transport network (OTN) signals having transmission rates in excess of 10 Gbps. The use of the BCH code (324,316) for the FEC improves the performance over prior art solutions for both error correction and detectiion.
