ABSTRACT:
A selective call receiving device (10) includes a signal decoder that utilizes both a peak and valley routine and a stochastic gradient feedback route for processing a received signal. The peak and valley routine is operable prior to the detection of a predetermined synchronization word in the received signal to detect the peak and valley of a received signal and to generated based on detected peak and valley, a DC offset correction value for correcting the received signal prior to symbol decoding. A number of threshold values are also generated based on the detected peak and valley of the signal for use by a symbol decoder (77). The symbol decoder (77) utilizes the threshold values for decoding a signal into symbols. The symbol decoder (77) also generates a feedback error that is used after the detection of the predetermined synchronization word for updating the DC correction value and for generating a gain correction value. An automatic frequency control signal is generated based on the DC correction value and a signal quality metric derived from the feedback error.
