Abstract
An apparatus and a method for decoding data that has been Complementary Code Keying (CCK)-encoded at one of the set of first and second differing data rates. The method includes receiving a symbol, determining which of the first and second data rates was used to encode the symbol and applying the symbol to a first correlator to generate a set of correlator output signals. The first correlator generates the set of correlator output signals based on a first mode when the first data rate was used to encode the symbol and based on a second mode when the second data rate was used to encode the symbol. The method also includes identifying a maximum-valued signal in one of the set of correlator output signals and demodulating the maximum-valued signal in one of the set of correlator output signals.
