1. A method of generating a forward error correction (FEC) code for a packet-based digital communications system, the method comprising:

  • applying a first encoding algorithm to a first dataword;

    applying a second encoding algorithm to the first dataword;

    generating a first checkbit sequence for the first dataword;

    appending the checkbit sequence to the first dataword;

    scrambling the first dataword at a source node;

    transmitting the first dataword on a data transmission link from the source node to a destination node;

    descrambling the transmitted first dataword at the destination node;

    generating a second checkbit sequence based on the transmitted dataword;

    comparing the first checkbit sequence with the second checkbit sequence;

    determining whether the received dataword contains a first bit error; and

    correcting the first bit error and a first and second replicated bit error.
