Abstract
A electronic system includes: a support chip configured to receive an input code stream; a circular Viterbi mechanism, coupled to the support chip, configured to: generate a final path metric for the input code stream, store intermediate path metrics at the repetition depth, generate a repetition path metric for the input code stream, and calculate a soft correlation metric based on the final path metric, the repetition path metric, and the intermediate path metrics.
