Abstract
We describe the design of a rate-1/2 hard-decision sequential decoder capable of operation at data rates up to 5 M bit/s. Test results are given for digitally generated errors, white noise, and real channels. The results are substantially in agreement with predictions of a coding gain of the order of 5 dB at a 10-5error rate.
