<p>A communications system which incorporates regular burst format forward error correction (FEC) coded data in at least two transmitters which are synchronised in such a way that transmission bursts are nominally non overlapped in time, but wherein the occurance of a brief burst overlap period, at the location of at least one remote receiver, produced due to propagation delays, is mitigated at least partially by means incorporated in the receiver for estimating information loss associated with the overlap, which estimate is used to assist in the decoding of the FEC code. <IMAGE></p> |
