A method, wireless receiver, and wireless communication system manage error correction of received wirelessly transmitted messages. A High Level network layer component identifies unique values within a message type associated with a communication link. The High Level network layer component determines a message signature associated with the message type. Decoding rules associated with the message type are generated by the High Level network layer component. The decoding rules include a set of acceptable/unacceptable errors associated with the message type. The decoding rules are sent via the High Level network layer component, to a component at a network layer that is lower than the High Level network layer component. The Low Level network layer component decodes, based on the decoding rules, at least a portion of a wirelessly transmitted message that has been received.
