Abstract:
1. A method for a receiver, comprising: selecting a mode of operation of a decoder as between a first mode and a second mode; scheduling recursion units of the decoder responsive to selection of the mode of operation; wherein the first mode and the second mode are respectively associated with a first type of initialization and a second type of initialization of the decoder; responsive to selection of the first mode, initializing the decoder with a first number of iterations of an inner decoding loop of the decoder for the first type of initialization; and responsive to selection of the second mode, initializing the decoder with a second number of iterations of the inner decoding loop of the decoder for the second type of initialization; wherein the first number of iterations is substantially less than the second number of iterations; and responsive to selection of the first mode, performing iterations of an outer decoding loop associated with the decoder for the initializing of the decoder.
