Claim 14:
15. A method, comprising:
sampling, by a receiver using a data sampler and while the receiver is operating using a parameter value, a first sampled signal sequence;
sampling, by the receiver, and concurrently with sampling by the data sampler, a first adaptation sample set;
combining the first sampled signal sequency and the first adaptation sample set to produce a first adaptation sequence;
counting a first number of occurrences of a first pattern in the first adaptation sequence;
counting a second number of occurrences of a second pattern in the first adaptation sequence; and
based at least in part on a measured ratio between a count of the first number of occurrences and a count of the second number of occurrences, adjusting the parameter value.
