Abstract :
In this paper, we analyze the design of sliding block Viterbi decoders in FPGA based on two proposed parallel Viterbi decoders with different area/performance ratios. Viterbi decoders for two wireless technologies were designed considering the proposed Viterbi decoders achieving reductions in resource utilizations of more than 50% compared to other state-of-the-art proposals1.
