Abstract
A method and apparatus for performing error correction is disclosed in which an optimum error correction algorithm to be applied to a digital data signal is selected based on a detected characteristic of the digital data signal. The selection of an optimum error correction algorithm based on a characteristic of the digital data signal insures maximum efficiency of the error correction process with a minimum impact on overall system throughput efficiency.
