Abstract

A receiver (500) utilizes parameters generated by a Viterbi decoder (530) to determine one of a plurality of coding rates in which user information is transmitted. The receiver (500) combines the parameters in a predetermined manner, the result of which is a detection statistic (dij). By utilizing the detection statistic (dij), the coding rate at which user information is accurately determined.
