A method includes obtaining information about a next upstream burst transmission. The method also includes determining a set of settings based on the information. The method includes adjusting a physical medium dependent (PMD) module based on the set of settings prior to receiving the next upstream burst transmission.

Physical medium dependent (PMD) module with burst prediction

A multi-channel decoder circuit associated with a multi-channel decoder system is disclosed. The multi-channel decoder circuit comprises a distributed decoder circuit comprising a set of unit decoder circuits, each unit decoder circuit configured to receive one or more codewords of a plurality of codewords associated with a plurality of input channels, and decode the one or more codewords. The multi-channel decoder circuit further comprises a distribution controller circuit configured to distribute each incoming codeword of the one or more codewords to the respective unit decoder circuit of the set of unit decoder circuits within the distributed decoder circuit, based on determining a currently available unit decoder circuit within the set of unit decoder circuits.

Multi-channel decoder with distributed scheduling

A system for a fiber-optic network includes a transceiver. The transceiver includes a fiber-optic interface unit and a host unit. The host unit includes a low-complexity error correction decoder and a high-complexity error correction decoder. One or both from the low-complexity error correction decoder and the high-complexity error correction decoder are selected to decode input data from the fiber-optic interface unit, the input data including codewords.

PMD-to-TC-MAC interface with 2-stage FEC protection

An optical network receiver (ONU) circuit associated with a passive optical network (PON) is disclosed. The ONU circuit comprises one or more processors is configured to operate in a hunt state, wherein the one or more processors is configured to detect frame boundaries associated with an incoming data signal based on a detecting a predefined synchronization (psync) pattern associated with the incoming data signal and transition to a pre-sync state, when the predefined psync pattern is detected correctly. The one or more processors is further configured to operate in the pre-sync state, wherein the one or more processors is configured to perform forward error correction (FEC) decoding for the incoming data signal, in order to determine signal statistics associated with the incoming data signal.

Embodiments related to retransmission in a communication system are described and depicted. In one embodiment, a retransmission entity repeats a transmission of data transfer unit by the device after a predetermined number of other transmitted data transfer units has been transmitted. The retransmission entity may also determine whether a measure for a time period since the first transmission of the data transfer unit by the device has exceeded a predetermined threshold and to provide a final transmission of the data transfer unit based on the determining that the measure for the time period has exceeded the predetermined threshold.

A method transmits data. The method includes transmitting a series of data unit, receiving a retransmission request indicating a plurality of corrupt data units in the transmitted data units which were not received correctly, and retransmitting the corrupted data units.

Data transmission and retransmission

A communication device includes a transmitter operable to couple to a plurality of transceivers via a plurality of transmission channels, transmit payload data via the plurality of transmission channels, and obtain monitored transmission conditions for one or more transmission channels in the plurality of transmission channels. During operation, the transmitter is further operable to generate reconfiguration request signals resultant from processing the monitored transmission conditions and transmit the reconfiguration request signals on transmission channels in the plurality of transmission channels.

Reconfigurable communication device and method
