Re: [10GBT] Question about previous analysis of codes and undetected errors.
George,
I'm traveling a lot and will have limited access to e-mail and voicemail for
the next two weeks as well. I did get a very garbled voice mail on my cell
last week, but I thought it sounded like someone who wanted a job...
George, not only did 1000BASE-T use extremely robust SSD/ESD and control
coding, it also had 100+ detectable, illegal codes out of the 625 4D codes
during data mode. In any case, I would need to rework the 1000BASE-T
analysis from the 100BASE-T2 presentation (does anyone have a copy?), if you
think that's educational.
I'd also be happy to analyze the 12D PAM12 proposal on the table for the
undetected frame error rate requirement and make a presentation at the
November plenary, as there appears to be sufficient interest.
Regards,
Sailesh.
