Abstract

A method for calculating backward state metrics of a trellis, the method includes: performing a radix-K calculation of backward state matrices of multiple states of at least one time instance of a trellis; and performing a radix-J calculation of backward state matrices of multiple states of at least one other time instance of the trellis; wherein K differs from J.
