Abstract
In one embodiment, a system and method for receiving information over a power line in accordance with the HomePlug specification is described. The receiver side of the method involves separation of the data within a payload of an incoming frame into a plurality of blocks. Thereafter, both frame control symbols and data within the blocks are processed by Frame Control Forward Error Correction (FEC) decoding logic.
