摘要:Soft-decision decoding is an NP-hard problem with great interest to developers of communication systems. We present an efficient soft-decision decoder of linear block codes based on compact genetic algorithm (cGA) and compare its performances with various other decoding algorithms including Shakeel algorithm. The proposed algorithm uses the dual code in contrast to Shakeel algorithm which uses the code itself. Hence, this new approach reduces the decoding complexity of high rates codes. The complexity and an optimized version of this new algorithm are also presented and discussed.
