Abstract
Coding gain is used to configure a communication system using a programmable error correction scheme. A best available error correction configuration is selected from among several configurations to provide an optimal coding gain performance for a given line or set of line characteristics and a given communication system. Payload is calculated for each of several error correction configurations, and the configuration providing the highest payload for a target bit error rate is selected. Use of gross gain to configure the communication system further provides an optimal configuration.
