Abstract

Techniques for forward error correction synchronization are described herein. The techniques include receiving a bit stream over a transmission link and determining a starting location of a first code word within the bit stream. Determining the starting location of the first code word includes identifying an error correction block associated with a previously received second code word, and designating a bit subsequent to the error correction block as the starting location of the first code word.
