Abstract
In accordance with the teachings described herein, systems and methods are provided for performing forward error correction. A decoder for performing forward error correction for a frame in a data stream includes a state machine configured to determine if a code block within the frame received by the decoder is a complete code block or a partial code block, the frame including a plurality of code blocks. A decoding unit is configured to receive the code block, and, when the code block is a partial code block, to generate an output based on decoding the partial code block and an additional partial decoding result that is input to the decoding unit.
