Summary:A receiver (200) capable of operating in a discontinuous transmit mode includes a soft decision decode (210) producing a soft output and generating window error signals. A window error detector (214) is coupled to the soft decision decoder for detecting a bad frame when the window error exceeds a bad frame threshold, wherein the threshold is altered based on the discontinuous transmit mode. The soft decision decoder may be a turbo decoder which stops iterative processing of the data associated with a window when the window error detector detects that the window does not result in a bad frame indication.
