Decoder and a method for determining a decoding reliability indicator

A decoder for use in a wireless communication device, the decoder comprising a correlator for correlating a received data sequence with a set of codewords such that a correlation value is generated for each correlation, wherein the set of codewords correspond to possible codewords that could be gene...

Summary:A decoder for use in a wireless communication device, the decoder comprising a correlator for correlating a received data sequence with a set of codewords such that a correlation value is generated for each correlation, wherein the set of codewords correspond to possible codewords that could be generated from encoding bit sequences having a predetermined number of information bits; a selector for selecting a first correlation value and a second correlation value generated by the correlator and for subtracting the second correlation value from the first correlation value to generate a third value; and a comparator for comparing the third value with a predetermined value to generate a decoding reliability indicator.
