In a couple of projects, I implemented frame synchronization based
entirely on the structure of the data and FEC; i.e. without insertion of
any preambles, sync markers or flags into the data stream. I even tried
to optimize FEC with respect to frame synchronization. That idea worked
nicely especially at low SNRs, although it can take a lot of computation.
The concept seems kind of obvious. Just wondering if there is any
relevant work in the literature; or if there are any practical
communication systems which use that approach.
