| 1. A method for decoding coded data in one frame transmitted from a transmitter at one data rate of a plurality of data rates
by a turbo decoder of a receiver having no information on a data rate at which the coded data is transmitted, and detecting
a data rate of the coded data, comprising the steps of:
(a) decoding the coded data in the frame at a selected data rate of the plurality of the data rates by the turbo decoder and
calculating a current decoding state value indicating an average of absolute values of log likelihood ratio (llr) values being
identical to decoded values of the coded data, output from the turbo decoder;
(b) calculating a current under-decoding state value defined as a difference between the current decoding state value and
a previous decoding state value;
(c) comparing the current decoding state value with a first threshold;
(c-1) performing CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) checking on the decoded data if the current decoding state value is larger
than a first threshold;
(c-2) comparing the current under-decoding state value with a second threshold if the current decoding state value is not
larger than a first threshold;
(c-3) performing CRC checking on the decoded data if the current under-decoding state value is larger than a second threshold;
and
(d) determining the selected data rate as a data rate of the coded data transmitted from the transmitter, if the CRC checking
result is good.
