Abstract
The complexity and performance of practical sequential decoders were studied. Upon comparing sequential decoders with Viterbi decoders, it was found that sequential decoders outperform Viterbi decoders at low data rates (19.2 to 76.8 kbps) for the same complexity. However, Viterbi decoders are less complex than sequential decoders at high data rates (9.1 Mbps) for the same performance
