ABSTRACT:
In a decoding system according to the invention, a digital signal received from an AWGN channel interfered by pulse interferences is so decoded (8) that the AGC control signal (10) of the RF/IF circuits of the reception is produced by median filtering (21) for the essential removal of the effect of pulse interferences, and that the interference is measured using a linear metric, whereby an external interference estimation circuit (30) is preferred.
