V.42 Error Correction Protocol
V.42 Product Description
GAO’s V.42 software is designed for optimum asynchronous-to-synchronous conversion as well as error detection and retransmission of damaged data. The ITU-T V.42 standard addresses two major problems for asynchronous devices: an asynchronous-to-synchronous conversion protocol and a sophisticated error-detection process for asynchronous systems. This recommendation contains an HDLC-based protocol referred to as the Link Access Procedure for Modems (LAPM).
Features of V42 Error Correction Protocol
- Link control protocol for the sequencing and flow control of the traffic.
- Cyclic redundancy check for error detection.
- V.14 for asynchronous-to-synchronous conversion operations.
- Inter-working in the non-error-correcting mode with V-Series DCEs that include asynchronous-to-synchronous conversion according to Recommendation V.14.
- Synchronous transmission through the conversion of start-stop data.
- Initial handshake in start-stop format minimizes disruption to the DTEs
