Abstract :
The normal Viterbi architecture and a radix 4 architecture are compared with a parallel ACS version using a latch based storage element. Results obtained using an eight-state EPR4 Viterbi detector show that parallel ACS architectures can provide a high level of performance with modest area requirements
