Abstract

Provided are methods, systems, and apparatus for error detection of bits of a data packet received at a receiver unit by detecting corrupted data bits.

Claims

1. A method, comprising:

receiving a data packet including time sensitive data and rolling data;

comparing the received rolling data to a previously stored corresponding rolling data;

incrementing a counter when the received rolling data is within a predetermined percentage of the previously stored rolling data;

determining if the counter is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold; and

accepting the received rolling data as valid.
