Abstract

A demodulator comprising an input structured to receive at least one past value and a current value both associated with the same bit transmitted in different time instants, a bit decoder configured to provide a decoded bit from an input value, a quality signal evaluation module configured to provide a quality signal representing a quality of the current value, and a filtering module structured to provide a filtered value computed as a weighted average of said at least one past value and said current value. Moreover the demodulator comprises a selection module connected between said input and said bit decoder, configured to transfer the current value as the input value of the bit decoder if the quality is greater than a reference value or transfer the filtered value as the input value of the bit decoder if the quality is not greater than the reference value.
