A decision function generator for a Viterbi decoder includes a compressor module for receiving arguments of a decision function and for evaluating functions of the arguments of the decision function, a memory module coupled to the compressor module for generating an intermediate function from the functions of the arguments, and a decompressor module coupled to the memory module for generating a sign value, an integer value, and a fractional value constituting a value of the decision function from the intermediate function.
