Abstract
A circuit which recovers a synchronization code, and a method thereof. Where a synchronization code is not detected from an incoming bitstream, a plurality of synchronization code recovery candidate patterns are compared with an original synchronization pattern, and location data to produce an optimal synchronization pattern is determined and generated on the basis of a result of the comparison. The synchronization code is recovered to a location corresponding to the location data. Alternatively, where a synchronization code is not detected from an incoming bitstream, a plurality of synchronization code recovery candidate patterns are error-corrected, and location data to produce an optimal synchronization pattern is determined and generated on the basis of a result of the error correction. The synchronization code is recovered to a location corresponding to the location data. Accordingly, a damaged synchronization code can be recovered by inserting a synchronization code to a more accurate location, further increasing the reliability of data.
