Abstract

Systems and methods can operate to improve the communication bandwidth in communication systems. Communication systems can use new forward error correction (FEC) algorithms to increase communication bandwidth. New FEC algorithms can also enable the use of other modulation formats to further improve communication bandwidth. Communication devices that can select from a plurality of FEC algorithms and modulation formats can maintain backward compatibility with the deployed FEC algorithms and modulation formats implemented in legacy communication devices while realizing increased communication bandwidth.
