  • Codeword builder for communication systems
    Patent number: 10411830
    Abstract: A communication device (alternatively, device) includes a processor configured to support communications with other communication device(s) and to generate and process signals for such communications. In some examples, the device includes a communication interface and a processor, among other possible circuitries, components, elements, etc. to support communications with other communication device(s) and to generate and process signals for such communications. Such a communication device includes a processor configured to perform codeword builder functionality to generate information that undergoes error checking and correction (ECC) and/or forward error correction (FEC) coding. The processor intelligently selects packets from buffers to generate information blocks that undergo ECC and/or FEC coding and transmission and to meet certain latency constraints in conjunction with a predetermined period of time (e.g., a programmable threshold).
