Abstract

See full text

Methods and apparatus for tail termination are provided that include a decoder that includes a processor configured to a forward state metric and a backward state metric wherein each iteration of an initial state of the backward state metric is fetched from a memory and is pre-computed without feedback from a decoding iteration. Each decoding iteration is substantially identical, and the backward state metric that is pre-computed is used for a subsequent iteration. The decoder may include a turbo decoder or a radix-4 decoder.
