Abstract
A fast-acting synchronisation mechanism for Internet Protocol (IPv4) packet delineation from an ingress bitstream is presented. It builds on delineation and scrambling mechanisms developed for asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) technology, but provides enhancements that cater for variable-sized packets. Implications of the scheme for IP version 6 are considered
