First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method, comprising:
- identifying a repeating primitive sequence within a received frame;
determining whether data in the repeating primitive sequence has one or more errors; and
indicating a successful reception of the received frame with the one or more errors in the repeating primitive sequence if the number of errors is less than a determined threshold.

Abstract
A method for error handling of corrupted repeating primitives during frame reception is disclosed. The method comprises identifying a portion of a received frame including a repeating primitive sequence, determining whether data in the repeating primitive sequence has one or more errors, and indicating a successful reception of the received frame with the one or more errors in the repeating primitive sequence if the number of errors is less than a determined threshold. Other embodiments are also disclosed.
