How the Viterbi algorithm finds the most likely path in digital communication
In short: In this lecture from MIT's Digital Communication Systems course, instructor George Verghese explains the mechanics of Viterbi decoding and its role in identifying maximum-likelihood paths.
The video provides a technical review of encoding and decoding processes. It introduces the Viterbi algorithm, specifically detailing how it utilizes a branch metric and a path metric to determine the most probable sequence during the decoding stage.
