Abstract
A turbo decoder employing the sliding window algorithm is computational intensive. Computational requirements are reduced in iterative decoders, at the expense of increased memory usage, by storing the stakes between iterations. The stakes used in this improved sliding windows algorithm can be compressed, resulting in a decoder with minimal additional memory requirements, while retaining the advantages in computational requirements obtained from storing the stakes between iterations.
