An Investigation into Linear Codes & The Viterbi Algorithm
Max Simmonds · University of Plymouth, 2017
A rigorous treatment of the Extended Hamming (8,4,3) code — constructing parity-check and generator matrices, comparing G- and H-matrix trellis complexity, and demonstrating that Viterbi decoding outperforms both codeword enumeration and syndrome decoding. Includes a quantitative complexity analysis.
