Method for simplifying a viterbi decoder and a simplified viterbi decoder using the same
A method for simplifying a Viterbi decoder includes receiving a partial response, and determining an amount of redundant selector modules according to a tap number of the partial response; analyzing an output signal of the redundant selector modules for determining an initial input signal; and taking Viterbi decoding process to a sequence of data in the Viterbi decoder according to a forward trace status and the initial input signal.
