Abstract
An electronic device may receive a packet comprising a plurality of codewords comprising pre-processing logic, a first decoder, and a second decoder. The pre-processing logic causes some of said codewords to be provided to the first decoder and other of said codewords to be provided to the second decoder. The codewords may be of different lengths and/or different code rates. Further, the first and second decoders may implement the same or different decoding technique.
Claims40
An electronic device that is adapted to receive a packet comprising a plurality of codewords, comprising:
- pre-processing logic;
- a first decoder;
- and
- a second decoder;
- wherein said pre-processing logic causes some of said codewords to be provided to the first decoder and other of said codewords to be provided to the second decoder.
Decode logic usable in a device that can receive packets comprising multiple codewords from at least one other device, comprising:
- pre-processing logic;
- a first decoder;
- and
- a second decoder;
- wherein said pre-processing logic causes some of said codewords to be provided to the first decoder and other of said codewords to be provided to the second decoder.
An electronic device that is adapted to receive a packet comprising a plurality of codewords, comprising:
- a first decoder;
- and
- a second decoder;
- a means for causing some of said codewords to be provided to the first decoder and other of said codewords to be provided to the second decoder.
A method, comprising:
- receiving a plurality of codewords forming a packet;
- providing at least one of said codewords to a first decoder;
- and
- providing at least one of said codewords to a second decoder;
- wherein the codewords include at least one codeword that has a length different from at least one other codeword.
A method, comprising:
- receiving a plurality of codewords forming a packet;
- decoding at least one of said codewords by a first decoding scheme;
- and
- decoding at least one of said codewords by a second decoding scheme;
- wherein said first and second decoding schemes are different.
