Abstract :
A parallelised max-Log-MAP model (P-max-Log-MAP) that exploits the sub-word parallelism and very long instruction word architecture of a microprocessor or a digital signal processor (DSP) is presented. The proposed model reduces considerably the computational complexity of the max-Log-MAP algorithm; and therefore facilitates easy implementation
