Method and system for determining a signal quality metric in event of a CRC false positive

Abstract

Certain aspects of determining a signal quality metric in event of a CRC false positive may comprise measuring an amplitude and/or phase of at least a portion of a phase shift keyed section of a frame. The measured amplitude and/or phase may be checked to determine if it lies within a range of a reference amplitude and/or phase respectively. An amplitude and/or phase counter may be incremented if the measured amplitude and/or phase lies outside the range of the reference amplitude and/or phase respectively. A confidence level value of a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) for at least a portion of the phase shift keyed section of the frame may be determined based on a determined value of the incremented amplitude and/or phase counter.
