Abstract

A system for determining the data bits represented by the received symbols of one or more data constellations includes converting the received symbols into multi-bit values (preferably in two's complement form), selecting a number of the most significant bits of each of the multi-bit values and inverting the most significant bit thereof to derive the data bits represented by the respective symbol.
