Abstract:

A radio receiver device is arranged to receive a radio signal including a data packet having an address portion and a payload portion, said radio receiver comprising: a first demodulation circuit portion arranged to demodulate the data packet and produce a first estimate of the address portion and a first estimate of the payload portion; a second demodulation circuit portion arranged to demodulate the data packet and produce a second estimate of the payload portion; a first comparison circuit portion arranged to compare said first and second estimates of the payload portion and produce a flag only if they are identical; and a second comparison circuit portion arranged, upon receipt of said flag, to compare said first estimate of the address portion to an expected address portion and to discard the data packet if they are not identical.
