Abstract
A method and concomitant apparatus for adapting a logic threshold level in response to a background noise level in an information signal. Information signal excursions beyond the logic threshold are indicative of the presence of an information packet in the information signal. In this manner, a relatively low dynamic range information packet processor may reliably receive information packets.
