Abstract
Digital data encoding and decoding method and system is provided. The data encoding includes encoding a frame signal into a bit stream, including detecting a specific bit pattern in the bit stream when the frame signal is present, generating a control signal in respect to the specific bit pattern, and encoding the bit stream into one or more marks and one or more spaces so that encoded data include a unique encoding pattern for the frame signal. The data decoding includes detecting at least one of mark and space from encoded data, recovering a bit stream from the encoded data when the at least one of mark and space is present, detecting a specific bit pattern associating with a frame signal from the encoded data when the at least one of mark and space is present, and recovering the frame signal from the encoded data.
