Abstract

We propose a novel computation control method for variable-complexity Fano decoders with buffers. Our method substantially lowers the rates of data block loss associated with conventional Fano decoders. For reasonably large buffer sizes, our method outperforms Layland's buffer management scheme with block loss rates close to the theoretical lower bound.
