    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a binary clustered forward error correction encoding scheme. Systems and methods are disclosed that define binary clustered encodings of the media packets from which forward error correction (FEC) packets are computed. The different encodings specify which media packets in a frame are used to compute each FEC packet (a frame includes M media packets). The different encodings may be defined based on the quantity of media packets in a frame, M≤floor(2N), where each bit of the binary representation of N is associated with a different cluster pair encoding of the media packets. Each cluster pair includes a cluster for which the bit=0 and a cluster for which the bit=1. Computing FEC packets using at least two cluster pair encodings provides redundancy for each media packet, thereby improving media packet recovery rates.
