Abstract
Decoding logic is arranged to receive an encoded data signal. The decoding logic comprises a convolutional decoder arranged to perform convolutional decoding on the encoded data signal, to produce a decoded data signal. The decoding logic comprises header bit prediction logic arranged to predict a value for at least one header bit within the decoded data signal, and to provide the predicted value for the at least one header bit to the convolutional decoder to be applied during convolutional decoding.
