Abstract :
The real-time minimal-bit-error probability (RTMBEP) decoding procedure recently presented by Lee is compared with the sequential compound decoding procedure originally described by Abend and Fritchman for the detection of symbols in the presence of intersymbol interference. We compare the number of computations and the amount of storage required for each algorithm as well as show how Lee´s procedure can be made more efficient.
