<p>A method of determining a frame rate of a data frame in a communication system by using apriori knowledge of data frame. In one embodiment, a signal is received at the communication device. Then a data frame portion of the signal is isolated. Next, a potential frame rate is chosen and the data frame is formatted accordingly. Decoding, at the chosen potential frame rate, occurs on the data frame. Then, a tail bit portion of the data frame is isolated. Afterward, a logic level of the decoded tail bit data is compared against the apriori knowledge of a transmitted logic level for the tail bit portion of the data frame. In addition, comparisons are also made between other data metrics and their expected values. Finally, a level of confidence is communicated to the communication device based upon a result of the comparisons.</p> |
