Abstract

A communication system implements detection of bad frames of information by utilizing multiple bit correction thresholds. Equipment used within the communication system adapts to different signaling environments by dynamically altering the bit correction threshold based on a history of the number of consecutive bad frames of information that have been previously erased and the number of bits corrected by a channel decoder (202). By implementing this dynamic bit correction threshold, sufficient bad frame indication (BFI) detection and receiver sensitivity can be obtained simultaneously, which results in an improved perceived audio quality to the end user.
