Popis: Convolutional encoders and Viterbi decoders are the most commonly used channel encoders/decoders used for efficient extraction of message bits. Convolutional encoder used EXOR gates for generating the code bits. Conventional Viterbi decoders use Trellis diagrams for extracting the message bits. Architecture of Viterbi decoder includes Branch Metric Unit (BMU), Path Metric Unit (PMU) and SurvivorMemory Unit (SMU). Considerable research is carried out in this area to develop efficient architectures that is less complex and uses lesser number of logic units. Also researchers work on reducing the delay time and thereby increasing the speed without compromising the increase in area. In this paper, a detailed literature survey is provided on various techniques used for less complex and high speed design of Viterbi decoders. The design of ANFIS based Viterbi decoder for noise free channel encoding is also described in this paper.
