Abstract :
It is shown that the optimal frame synchronization markers for channels with memory, considering the widely used postdetection maintenance and the minimum average rule, are not the ones optimized for an AWGN channel. A method for obtaining the optimal marker using the channel state diagram and the corresponding trellis is presented.<>
