Abstract
A method for processing a digital signal includes: receiving a plurality of protocol data units, each having a header including a plurality of control word bits; and a plurality of audio frames, each including a cyclic redundancy check code; decoding the protocol data units using an iterative decoding technique, wherein the iterative decoding technique uses a soft output decoding algorithm for iterations after the first iteration; and using decoded cyclic redundancy check codes to flag the audio frames containing errors. A receiver that implements the method is also provided.
