Abstract

Various aspects provide for modifying a data stream for rate adaptation. A clock component receives a data stream at a first clock rate. In an aspect, a rate adaptation component inserts a first identification codeword into a particular location in the data stream based on a set of encoding rules in response to a determination that the first clock rate is lower than a second clock rate associated with a device configured for receiving a rate-adapted version of the data stream. In another aspect, the rate adaptation component removes a predefined codeword from the data stream and transforms another predefined codeword in the data stream into a second identification codeword in response to a determination that the first clock rate is greater than the second clock rate.
