Low-latency architectures for high-throughput rate Viterbi decoders.

Low-latency architectures for high-throughput rate Viterbi decoders.

In this paper, a novel K-nested layered look-ahead method and its corresponding architecture, which combine K-trellis steps into one trellis step (where K is the encoder constraint length), are proposed for implementing low-latency high-throughput rate Viterbi decoders. The proposed method guarantee...
