Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for decoding a codeword encoded by a linear block code. A method may comprise performing a soft decision decoding on a codeword, generating a hard decision for each bit of the codeword at an end of the soft decision decoding, generating a hard decision for each bit of the codeword at an end of the soft decision decoding, generating a reliability determination for each hard decision and performing a hard decision decoding using the hard decision for each bit and reliability determination for each hard decision.
