A High-Speed Viterbi Decoder

2008 Fourth International Conference on Natural Computation, 2008
Convolutional codes are widely used in many communication systems due to their excellent error-control performance. High-speed Viterbi decoders for convolutional codes are of great interest in high-speed applications. A high-speed (2, 1, 6) Viterbi decoder is presented in this paper, which is based on parallel Radix-4 architecture and bit-level carry ...

List Viterbi decoding algorithms with applications

IEEE Transactions on Communications, 1994
A list Viterbi decoding algorithm (LVA) produces a rank ordered list of the L globally best candidates after a trellis search. The authors present two such algorithms, (i) a parallel LVA that simultaneously produces the L best candidates and (ii) a serial LVA that iteratively produces the k/sup th/ best candidate based on knowledge of the previously ...

Array Processors for Viterbi Decoder

2005 2nd International Symposium on Wireless Communication Systems, 2005
Wireless receivers are often characterized as portable and battery operated. As such, they are bound by a tight set of constraints such as power consumption, area usage, and throughput speed. Parallel implementation of operations increases the speed of computation without an undue increase in lock frequency.

Feedforward Architectures for Parallel Viterbi Decoding

Journal of VLSI signal processing systems for signal, image and video technology, 1991
The Viterbi-Algorithm (VA) is a common application of dynamic programming. The algorithm contains a nonlinear feedback loop (ACS-feedback, ACS: add-compare-select) which is the bottleneck in high data rate implementations. In this paper we show that, asymptotically, the ACS-feedback no longer has to be processed recursively, i.e., there is no feedback.

Nanophotonic Viterbi decoding

2012 IEEE 27th Convention of Electrical and Electronics Engineers in Israel, 2012
An all optical Viterbi decoder on a silicon chip was designed. The device is composed of an optical memory cell and two interfering input arms that use QPSK modulation to encode the incoming bits. The device has a shape of a ring resonator with a size of just a few micrometers and relies on the coupling of modes. Data processing of a few picoseconds is

An effective simplifying scheme for viterbi decoder

IEEE 60th Vehicular Technology Conference, 2004. VTC2004-Fall. 2004, 1991
A new reduced-state decoding method is presented. The method constructs state-sets, then classifies, compares, and selects states through certain rules based on a Viterbi algorithm (VA). The decoder complexity is reduced to increasing linearly with constraint-length, as compared to the VA whose complexity increases exponentially with constraint-length.

A parallel Viterbi decoding algorithm

Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience, 2001
AbstractIn this paper we express the Viterbi algorithm as a matrix–vector reduction in which multiplication is replaced by addition and addition by minimization. The resulting algorithm is then readily parallelized in a form suitable for implementation on a systolic processor array.

An artificial neural net Viterbi decoder

IEEE Transactions on Communications, 1996
The Viterbi algorithm is a maximum likelihood means for decoding convolutional codes and has thus played an important role in applications ranging from satellite communications to cellular telephony. In the past, Viterbi decoders have usually been implemented using digital circuits.

Memory Management in a Viterbi Decoder

IEEE Transactions on Communications, 1981
Management of the memory contents in a Viterbi decoder is a major design problem for both hardware and software realizations. In a naive implementation, every bit in the memory must be changed (read, modified, and rewritten) for each message bit decoded, and, in addition, some double buffering is required.

A new transform algorithm for Viterbi decoding

IEEE Transactions on Communications, 1990
Implementation of the Viterbi decoding algorithm has attracted a great deal of interest in many applications, but the excessive hardware/time consumption caused by the dynamic and backtracking decoding procedures make it difficult to design efficient VLSI circuits for practical applications.
