Abstract
Embodiments of a method and a device are disclosed. In an embodiment, a method for operating a wired communications device involves including a frame boundary bit sequence and a random data sequence as a preamble of a bit stream, encoding the bit stream into an encoded bit stream, and transmitting the encoded bit stream using the wired communications device.
Claims18
A method for operating a wired communications device, the method comprising:
- generating a random data sequence based on a thermal noise within the wired communications device;
- including a frame boundary bit sequence and the random data sequence as a preamble of a bit stream, wherein the preamble including the random data sequence is not scrambled;
- encoding the bit stream into an encoded bit stream;
- and
- transmitting the encoded bit stream using the wired communications device.
