Soft-in soft-out decoder
A soft-in soft-out (SISO) decoder is a type of soft-decision decoder used with . “Soft-in” refers to the fact that the incoming data may take on values other than 0 or 1, in order to indicate reliability. “Soft-out” refers to the fact that each bit in the decoded output also takes on a value indicating reliability. Typically, the soft output is used as the soft input to an outer decoder in a system using , or to modify the input to a further decoding iteration such as in the decoding of turbo codes.
Examples include the BCJR algorithm and the soft output Viterbi algorithm.
