Abstract: The invention discloses an improved method and a receiving device of the Viterbi algorithm. The improved method is applicable for a Viterbi decoder that receives an output signal generated by a convolution code encoder processing an original signal. The convolution code encoder includes M registers and M is a positive integer greater than or equal to 2. The improved method includes the following steps. First, for the first to the Mth data of the output signal, the Viterbi decoder performs the add-compare-select operation based on the known M initial values of the M registers. Then, for the Mth-last to the last data of the output signal, the Viterbi decoder performs the add-compare-select operation based on the known last M bits values of the original signal, thereby reducing the computational complexity of the add-compare-select unit.
