Abstract

A system and method for sequence estimation decoding allows a receiver to decode a received signal modulated according to one of plurality of possible modulating methods. In a preferred approach, a sequence estimation decoder detects the modulating method that was applied to the received signal, and adjusts its decoding process accordingly. In this manner, the decoder adjusts its operations to the specific one of the plurality of possible modulating methods used by the transmitting system originating the received signal. In an exemplary application, signals are modulated using either Gaussian Minimum Shift Keying (GMSK) or Offset Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (Offset-QAM), and the decoder adjusts its operations to either one of these modulating methods based on its detection of the particular method used.
