Abstract

A method, apparatus and computer program for decoding a data stream. The method comprises the steps of acquiring an analog data signal, determining an initial polarity of the analog data signal, determining a threshold transition level, determining a plurality of transition edges where the analog data signal crosses the threshold transition level, and determining the number of unit intervals between each pair of transition edges. A binary value is assigned to each of the unit intervals, and the binary values are displayed to a user.
