A method (100) for improved decoding of received convolutionally coded input data uses data scaling to provide near ideal turbo decoding. The method includes a first step of loading (102) a portion of the input data into a buffer. A next step includes calculating (104) a mean of the data in the portion of the input data. A next step includes computing (106) a root-mean-square value of the portion of the input data using the mean from the calculating step. A next step includes deriving (108) a scaling factor from the root-mean-square value of the computing step, and a next step includes scaling (110) the portion of input data by the scaling factor of the deriving step.
