HDMI FRL correction system and method thereof

An error correction method implemented by a High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) Fixed Rate Link (FRL) system, the system comprising a Scrambler Reset (SR) and Start of Super Block (SSB) correlator, an SR/SSB lock detector coupled to the SR/SSB correlator, an SR/SSB predictor coupled to the SR/SSB lock detector, an SR/SSB bit error corrector coupled to the SR/SSB correlator, the SR/SSB lock detector and the SR/SSB predictor, an SR/SSB detector coupled to the SR/SSB bit error corrector, the method comprising:

• receiving an input SR signal or an input SSB signal by the SR/SSB correlator;
• correlating the input SR signal to a SR signal or the input SSB signal to a SSB signal to generate a correlation result;
• setting a lock flag by the SR/SSB lock detector according to the correlation result;
• when the lock flag is enabled, correcting the input SR signal by the SR/SSB bit error corrector according to the SR signal to generate an output SR signal, or correcting the input SSB signal by the SR/SSB bit error corrector according to the SSB signal to generate an output SSB signal;
• and
• determining whether the output SR signal or the output SSB signal complies with a predefined standard by the SR/SSB detector to generate an indicator signal.
