Abstract
A computer-implemented method of communicating message data in a frame of data includes transmitting the frame of data across a communication channel. The frame of data includes the message data, a first 8-bit digital control word, and a second 8-bit digital control word. Each control word has a unique bit pattern and is associated with a different time interval that individually indicates where or when the message data begins or began in the frame of data relative to the time interval's associated control word. At least one of the control words and other data are received. At least some of the other data are identified as the message data based upon receipt of at least one of the control words. Only one of the control words needs to be received to identify the message data from the other data.
