The Viterbi Algorithm, the elegant 41-year-old logical tool for rapidly eliminating dead end possibilities in data transmission, has a new application to go alongside its ubiquitous daily use in cell ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a novel Viterbi-Like successive cancellation (VL-SC) decoding algorithm for polar codes. The algorithm employs the bit log-likelihood-ratio as the “penalty value” within ...

FEC (forward-error-correction) techniques correct errors at the receiver end of digital communications systems. In contrast with error-detection and retransmission ...

Abstract: Several classical decoding algorithms, such as Fano decoding, list decoding and list Viterbi decoding algorithm have been proposed for polarization-adjusted convolutional (PAC) codes by some ...

Andrew Viterbi simply wanted to fill in the blanks in several theories when he developed the Viterbi Algorithm. Little did he anticipate its widespread applicability in error-correcting codes in 2 ...

Editor’s Note: The Viterbi Complex Math Unit, or VCU, comprises 75 tailored math instructions to accelerate the processing of communications algorithms, such as those used in power-line communications ...

This project implements the Viterbi algorithm in Python using NumPy. It is designed to find the most likely sequence of hidden states (the Viterbi path) that results in a sequence of observed events.
