Abstract
A process capable of employing compression and decompression mechanism to receive and decode soft information is disclosed. Upon receiving a set of signals representing a logic value from a transmitter via a physical communication channel, the set of signals is demodulated in accordance with a soft decoding scheme and subsequently, a Log Likelihood Ratio ('LLR') value representing the logic value is generated. After generating a quantized LLR value in response to the LLR value via a non-linear LLR quantizer, the quantized LLR value representing the compressed logic value is stored in a local storage.
