ABSTRACT:
A method for determining a bit boundary of a repetition-coded signal including bits each having a plurality of epochs includes (a) counting the epochs repeatedly from an initial number to a predetermined number in a predetermined time, (b) sensing sign changes in the epochs, (c) recording each sensed sign change with a weighting function to a corresponding counting number of the epoch, and (d) determining the bit boundary according to a result of step (c).
