Abstract

A decoding system for a communication channel includes N parallel channel detection modules that generate N first probability vectors based on sequences of X correlated bits in each of N groups of correlated bits, respectively. N parallel updating modules generate M second probability vectors based on the N first probability vectors and N feedback signals. N parallel estimation modules generate estimates of the X correlated bits in each of the N groups of correlated bits based on the M second probability vectors. N parallel decoding modules generate the N feedback signals and N output signals based on the estimates of the X correlated bits in each of the N groups of correlated bits. X is an integer greater than one, M is an integer greater than or equal to one, and N is an integer greater than or equal to M.
