Abstract
A post-processor for providing reliability information about every decoded data symbol at the output of an arbitrary decoder is proposed. This reliability information is generated by comparing the decoded sequence to a small list of alternative sequences which differ from the decoded sequence at least in the symbol for which the reliability is being evaluated. It is shown that this algorithm is a simplification of the optimal symbol-by-symbol detector (OSSD). The performance of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated by considering three concatenated coding systems
