Patent number: 9448885Abstract: A method of performing forward error correction with configurable latency, where a configurable latency algorithm evaluates a target Bit Error Rate (BER) against an actual BER and adjusts the size of a configurable buffer such that the target BER may be achieved when utilizing the smallest buffer size possible. When errors are corrected without the utilization of each of the configurable buffer locations, the algorithm reduces the size of the buffer by y buffer locations; the algorithm may continue to successively reduce the size of said buffer until the minimum number of buffer locations are utilized to achieve the target BER. If the buffer locations have been reduced such that the buffer size is too small and the target BER cannot be achieved, the algorithm may increase the size of the buffer until the minimum number of buffer locations are utilized to achieve the target BER.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2015Date of Patent: September 20, 2016Assignee: Altera CorporationInventors: Wally Haas, Chuck Rumbolt

Patent number: 9391781Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices are provided for intermediate authentication of a message transmitted through a switched-path network, such as an optical transport network (OTN). In one method, a message transmitted through communication nodes of a switched-path network may be authenticated, at least partially, by authentication logic of one or more of the communication nodes. The one or more communication nodes may identify whether a prior communication node has tampered with or corrupted the message or may generate an authentication tag to enable an authentication authority to authenticate the message.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2013Date of Patent: July 12, 2016Assignee: Altera CorporationInventors: Martin Langhammer, Shawn David Nicholl, Wally Haas

Patent number: 9281911Abstract: The present invention discloses a method of detecting and correcting skew across a plurality of transmitting lanes. Through the use of an N framer system, including a frame start signal and a frame synchronization signal, skew can be detected and corrected by writing data from a plurality of framers into offsetting bit locations of a plurality of buffers. The present invention also provides a method of transmitting data in a multiple lane distribution (MLD) transmission system.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2014Date of Patent: March 8, 2016Assignee: Altera Canada Co.Inventor: Wally Haas

Patent number: 9264381Abstract: The present invention discloses an apparatus to implement a m=n Non-Blocking Minimal Spanning Switch, where n=the total number of data input signals and m=the total number of data output signals and m=the number of crossbar connections in each switch. Data is input to the switch as a plurality of frames, whereby each crossbar connection contains a framer which detects framing patterns in the data. Skewed data is re-aligned and buffered so that the data output by each crossbar connection is equal and identical, thus any crossbar connection may be used to ensure a connection, eliminating the possibility of data interrupts.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 2013Date of Patent: February 16, 2016Assignee: Altera Canada Co.Inventor: Wally Haas
