Patent ID: 6898209

Claim:
A method for assembling frames of a multiframe, wherein said method comprises: calculating, for each of said frames, the value of an identifier for inclusion into each of said frames before transmitting them from a transmitter at the rate of a transmitter clock, temporarily storing said frames into a temporary buffer of a receiver before reading them out from said temporary buffer for storage to a multi frame buffer memory, wherein said method further comprises: synchronizing a receiver clock with said transmitter clock, calculating said identifier according to a predetermined algorithm such that an amount of distinct values that said identifier can have is less than the amount of frames within said multiframe, extracting said identifier from said frames within said receiver for determining a position in said temporary buffer for storing said incoming frames, wherein an amount of memory locations of said temporary buffer is smaller than said amount of frames within said multiframe, and said frames are read from positions in said temporary buffer for storage into locations of said multiframe buffer memory, irrespective of said identifier value.
