Abstract
A method for detecting synchronization loss of the trellis minimum path metric in V.34 modem communications. The invention detects synchronization loss due to bit inversions in trellis decoding in transmitted digital frames due to a periodic inversion pattern that is used for superframe synchronization. The method provides synchronization loss detection by finding the ratio of moving averages for a series of data blocks to the average of a series of inverted 4D symbols located periodically in the beginning and center of received data frames.
