Improved frame synchronization performance for CCITT algorithms using bit erasures

For the CCITT recommendations on frame synchronization (as enhanced in Jones and Al-Subbagh, 1985), the performance in the presence of jamming, interference or other disturbance is improved by using bit erasure information. The acquisition time and misalignment detection times are reduced and the false exit time is increased, with only a minor reduction in the already large false entry time. >
