Design of a new squaring function for the Viterbi algorithmA new algorithm and hardware implementation of the Viterbi squaring function was developed. The use of an approximation squaring technique preserves the Viterbi performance as is demonstrated by Monte-Carlo simulations. Additionally, the 16-bit approximate squaring implementation is expected to require one-fourth the area and operate at three times the speed of the conventional squaring implementation.
