Abstract
A method for determining a boundary of an information element, in which a repetition coded signal transmitted by satellites is received, which signal is modulated with information elements. A group of symbols forms one information element. A group of reference values are formed on the basis of the received signal. Of these reference values at least one vector is formed wherein the number of the elements corresponds to the number of symbols use in the transmission of the information element. A determination vector is formed on the basis of the at least one vector, whereafter the greatest of the elements of the determination vector is searched. The index of said elements indicates the boundary of the information element.
