Abstract
The Big Viterbi Decoder (BVD), currently under development for the Deep Space Network (DSN), uses a single module to perform three functions: node synchronization, frame-marker synchronization, and adjustment to nontransparent codes. In the present DSN, the first function is executed by the Maximum Likelihood Convolutional Decoder, and the second and third functions reside in a Frame-Synchronization Subassembly. The BVD approach combines these functions to Increase equipment effectiveness and capabilities.
