Symbol reliability estimation using the bidirectional Viterbi algorithm with a code trellis and a syndrome trellis for QLI codes

Abstract

In this paper, we show that in the case of quick look-in (QLI) codes, the symbol reliability values are obtained by applying the bidirectional Viterbi algorithm (BIVA) either to the code trellis or to the corresponding syndrome trellis.
