Faulted messages in 5G or 6G are generally discarded and a retransmission is then requested. However, the faulted message contains valuable information despite the few faulted message elements. Retransmission is a time-consuming energy-intensive process. Therefore, the present disclosure pertains to procedures for determining which specific message elements, of a corrupted message, are actually faulted. To do so, the receiver can determine a modulation quality of each message element by measuring a difference between the amplitude levels of the message element and the predetermined amplitude levels of the modulation scheme. For example, the modulation scheme may involve an I-branch and an orthogonal Q-branch, each with a different amplitude. The message quality may be related to the deviation of each branch amplitude from the closest predetermined amplitude level of the modulation scheme. A large amplitude deviation indicates a suspicious message element. Many other aspects are also disclosed.

A method is for processing an analog signal coming from a transmission channel. The analog signal may include a useful signal modulated on a sub-set of carriers. The method may include analog-to-digital converting of the analog signal into a digital signal, and synchronization processing the digital signal. The synchronizing may include determining, in a time domain, a limited number of coefficients of a predictive filter from an autoregressive model of the digital signal, and filtering the digital signal in the time domain by a digital finite impulse response filter with coefficients based upon the limited number of coefficients to provide a filtered digital signal.
