Abstract

A method of processing a sequence of digital symbols comprises the steps of processing the sequence of digital symbols and determining an uncertainty in the processing. If the uncertainty exceeds a predetermined threshold, then the method further comprises the steps of processing at least two sequences of digital symbols wherein at least one parameter is set differently in each sequence, and deciding upon a calculated error for each sequence which sequence is used to generate an output signal.
