ABSTRACT:
Convolutional code symbols are sequentially stored into a first buffer at a transmission rate and read therefrom into a decoder where the symbols are decoded at a rate higher than the transmission rate and stored into a second buffer. A controller determines the likelihood of each decoded symbol in accordance with a predetermined likelihood algorithm and causes the decoded symbols to be read out of the second buffer in a backward direction into the decoder when the determination indicates a low likelihood value. When the first buffer is overflowed, the controller causes symbols to be read out of the first buffer into the decoder staring with a symbol which is k symbols older than the most recently received symbol and causes the decoder to shift its symbol timing by one clock interval, where k is an integer ranging from zero to a predetermined number which is smaller than the maximum number of symbols that can be stored in the first buffer.
