Abstract

A message that has its energy spread over a frame of encoded data is decoded. First, encoded data are received so as to obtain a quantity of the encoded data that is less than all the encoded data in the frame and also is less than all the encoded data representing the message. Then, the quantity of encoded data received is supplemented, without receiving additional encoded data, so as to obtain a frame of data. Typically, the data will be supplemented by zero padding the data, such as by initializing a frame buffer to all zeros and then overwriting the zero data with actual data as it is received. Finally, ordinary frame decoding is performed on the frame of data so generated, in order to decode the message.
