Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The ability to accurately and efficiently calculate and report communication errors is becoming more important than ever in today's communications environment. More specifically calculating and reporting CRC anomalies in a consistent manner across a plurality of communications connections in a network is crucial to accurate error reporting. Through a normalization technique applied to a CRC computation period (e.g., the PERp value), accurate error identification and reporting for each individual connection can be achieved.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An apparatus comprising a transceiver operable to increment a CRC anomaly counter by a value of M, wherein the value of M is equal to 1 if a value for a CRC computation period (PERp) is between 15 ms and 20 ms and wherein the value of M is equal to PERp/15 if the PERp computation period is less than 15 ms. 2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein a Severely Errored Second (SES) is declared if there are more than 18 CRC anomalies in a p…
