Abstract
A forward error correction (FEC) method is provided including an FEC dynamic central station and a plurality of FEC dynamic remote stations that transmit bearer data and corresponding error correction data therebetween during a plurality of time frames. The error rate of the communication channel is measured and the amount of error correction data transmitted is accordingly and dynamically adjusted, so that the minimum amount of overhead required to effectively transmit the error correction data is used.
