Abstract

An apparatus for transmitting a FEC frame is provided. In order to correct an error caused by a transmission medium using FEC in a Reed-Solomon code type, FEC encoding/decoding of a frame is performed. A total transmission delay time is not influenced when FEC is bypassed, a delay caused by a shortened codeword is minimized, and a FEC encoding/decoding delays for frames having different lengths are equalized.
