Abstract

In one aspect the invention is a method for decoding. The method includes receiving encoded data and decoding the encoded data using a noise-adaptive decoder. The data may include first-order Reed-Mueller (FORM) based codes. The data may be based on Complementary Code Keying. Using a noise-adaptive decoder may include determining values of a hard decision based on a first decoding process and discarding the values of the hard decision if a noise sensitivity parameter is above a threshold value. The method may further include using a second decoder process if the noise sensitivity parameter is above the threshold value.
