Abstract

A receiver front end () receives a known Stop Waveform () comprising a predetermined symbol pattern on a voice channel, the Stop Waveform sent at the end of a transmission. A processor () coupled to the receiver front end terminates () the reception of the voice channel in response to detecting the Stop Waveform. The processor computes () a plurality of characteristics derived from the received signal, including a carrier-to-noise ratio, a maximum normalized symbol correlation energy over all symbols of the Stop Waveform, and a number of small and a number of large normalized symbol energy values. The processor detects () the Stop Waveform by comparing the plurality of characteristics with a corresponding plurality of predetermined thresholds.
