  • Reduced complexity viterbi decoding
    Patent number: 8718202
    Abstract: A system includes a Viterbi decoder. The Viterbi decoder includes add compare select logic. The add compare select logic determines path metrics for an encoded signal. The add compare select logic also is shared to determine a best state by which trace-back procedure gets started, resulting in hardware saving.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 10, 2009
    Date of Patent: May 6, 2014
    Assignee: Texas Instruments Incorporated
    Inventors: Rami Abdallah, Seok-Jun Lee, Manish Goel
  • Low-power predecoding based viterbi decoding
    Patent number: 8230313
    Abstract: In at least some disclosed embodiments, a system includes a Viterbi decoder and predecoding logic coupled to the Viterbi decoder. The predecoding logic decodes encoded data. The system further includes detection logic coupled to the predecoding logic. The detection logic tests decoded data, and the detection logic produces a binary result. The Viterbi decoder is enabled if the binary result is a first value, and the Viterbi decoder is disabled if the binary result is a second value.
