<p>The decoding method comprises storing, successively performing, determining, first performing, second performing, and outputting. The storing stores the N received branchwords in memory. The successively performing performs Viterbi updates on a sequence of branchwords. The determining determines a first encoder state at the end of the third block most likely to have generated the final branchword in the sequence from the best path metric. The first performing performs a Viterbi traceback procedure from the first encoder state at the end of the third block to determine a second encoder state at the start of the third block of branchwords. The second performing performs a Viterbi traceback procedure from that second encoder state at the start of the third block to determine a third encoder state at the start of the second block of branchwords. The outputting outputs a derived tail-biting path, if the second and third encoder states are identical.</p> |
