Abstract :
The fast decoding Viterbi algorithm is proposed in this paper, which depends on majority principle for decision. The proposed algorithm is compared with conventional decoding algorithm. The comparison is done by means of decoder initialization with the metric tableset and the possible states of the encoder calculated.
