Abstract
A signal receiver for interpreting a received signal is provided, the receiver being configured to perform: decoding the received signal so as to form a sequence of symbols hypothesised to represent the content of the received signal; comparing the frequency of occurrence of symbols within the sequence with a predetermined symbol distribution; and if the relative frequency of occurrence of symbols within the sequence of symbols does not match the predetermined distribution, treating the sequence of symbols as being an incorrect representation of the content of the received signal.
