Abstract
A data processing system includes a likelihood input operable to receive encoded data, a decoder operable to apply a decoding algorithm to likelihood values for the received encoded data and to yield a decoded output, and a decoder input initialization circuit operable to generate new decoder input values based in part on the likelihood values for the received encoded data after the likelihood values for the received encoded data have failed to converge in the decoder.
