Abstract
A method is provided for forward error correction for packets of information transmitted in a network. In one example, the method includes adding redundant information to the packets to be transmitted; transmitting the packets, wherein many of the packets become arrived packets, and wherein one or more of the packets becomes one or more lost packets; and restoring the one or more lost packets using redundant information of the arrived packets.
