There is provided a scheme for bit error rate detection. It is characterised by: detecting the bit value present in a received multi-level signal (102), more narrowly detecting the bit value present in that received multi-level signal (104), comparing the results of narrow detection with the results detected otherwise to identify errors in detection (203, 206, 207 and 209), and accumulating detected symbol errors over unit time. Bit error rate detection can be used for antenna selection-selecting one of a plurality of diversity antennas when the error rate exceeds (213) a certain error threshold. |
