1. A method for generating a corrected response signal from a corrupted digital response signal comprising the steps of:

  • receiving a corrupted first response signal comprising at least data;

    sampling said first response signal at a predetermined sampling rate yielding a sampling value per sample;

    generating a second and a third response signal by shifting said first response signal a predetermined number of samples to the right and by shifting said first response signal a predetermined number of samples to the left respectively;

    comparing a sample value of said first response signal to the value of the corresponding sample of said second and third response signal;

    determining the corrected value of said sample by a majority decision between said corresponding sample values of said first, second and third response signals, thereby generating a corrected response signal.
