Abstract

Embodiments of a method and apparatus for a transceiver decoding an Ethernet signal. The method includes receiving an Ethernet bit stream. The bit stream is at least one of low-complexity decoded by a low-complexity decoder of the transceiver or high-complexity decoded by a high-complexity decoder of the transceiver. If the bit stream fails a low-complexity decoding test, then the bit stream is high-complexity decoded. The low-complexity decoding and high complexity decoding are iteratively repeated until the bit stream passes the low-complexity decoding test.
