Abstract
A communication device for transmitting and receiving control and user data bursts in a digital telecommunication system. Data bursts including bursts of a first type and bursts of a second type different from the first type, are received, with the first type bursts comprising a first training sequence and the second type bursts comprising a second training sequence, Data of the received data bursts are auto-correlated; and the type of a received data burst is recognized on the basis of a phase value of the auto-correlation result of the training sequence of the data burst.
