            Abstract : 
A new algorithm for the soft-decision decoding of linear block codes is proposed. The algorithm uses the technique of the ordered-statistics decoding proposed by Fossorier and Lin (1995) to estimate a certain part of the transmitted code vector, while the remaining part is estimated by using the technique of the maximum-likelihood decoding.
