If no tested codeword is correct or the signal-to-noise ratio
\begin_inset Formula $y$
\end_inset
is too small for decoding to be possible, the ratio
\begin_inset Formula $r=u_{2}/u_{1}$
\end_inset
will likely be close to 1.
On the other hand, correctly identified codewords will produce
\begin_inset Formula $u_{1}$
\end_inset
significantly larger than
\begin_inset Formula $u_{2}$
\end_inset
and thus smaller values of
\begin_inset Formula $r$
