Decoding techniques in state estimation for dynamic systems with past histories

States of dynamic models with a higher order memory are estimated using both a stack sequential decoding algorithm and the Viterbi decoding algorithm (VDA), without higher dimensional dynamic system representation. This results in memory reduction for state estimate implementation. It is found that state estimation with a stack sequential decoding algorithm is faster and more practical than the state estimation with the Viterbi decoding algorithm, even though the estimates obtained by the Viterbi decoding algorithm are superior.<
