Method and system for error correction using asynchronous digital facsimile protocol
First Claim
1. A method for operating a communication system, including a calling apparatus and a called apparatus, for transmitting data therebetween over an asynchronous digital network during a transmitting process in accordance with a protocol standard, wherein the calling apparatus and the called apparatus generate a plurality of command frames and at least one data frame during the transmitting process, the method comprising the sequential steps of:
- (a) exchanging, between the calling apparatus and the called apparatus, a plurality of preliminary command frames representative of handshake protocol information including error correction method ECM capabilities;
(b) initiating an error correcting operation;
(c) transmitting a data set, including at least one data frame having associated data frame identification information, between the calling apparatus and the called apparatus; and
(d) verifying receipt of the data set.

Abstract
Communication system and method including a calling apparatus and a called apparatus. The system comprises handshake means for exchanging negotiation information including error correction ECM capabilities data, contained in a plurality of command frames between the calling apparatus and the called apparatus. The system further includes means for initiating an error correction operation, a transmitter for transmitting and receiving between the calling and the called apparatus a data set having associated data frame identification information, and verification means for verifying receipt of the data set. A method corresponding to the system also is described.
