A digital radio system is described in which data symbols are transmitted over a radio channel using multi-level modulation. A receiver receives the multi-level modulation signal and a first symbol estimator gives a first estimate of a symbol represented by the received multi-level modulation signal and a second estimator gives a second estimate of a symbol represented by said signal; the output of the first estimator is provided when the first and second outputs are the same or have a predetermined relationship and an ouput based on the output of the second estimator is provided otherwise.

Why it's free to use
- Filed October 30, 1991 and granted May 5, 1998. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended October 30, 2011.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 30, 2013.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
