% % compute the branch metrics estimates (c_k ) ̂(s,s^' ) according toThe central idea is to overcome
% % the (white-) noise assumption within the previously described Viterbi algorithm, more precisely
% % a closed-loop optimization is proposed that finds a suitable filter-set to directly compute the
% % branch metrics c_k (s,s^' ). These can directly be used to carry out the conventional Viterbi
% % algorithm. The system consists of S^L S=F linear FIR filters, combined with one bias coefficient
% % respectively. These filters take the received input samples to compute the branch metrics
% % estimates. Finally, the usual Viterbi is carried out...
%
% % Recommended Settings and some findings:
%
% % Requires many training epochs. According to ML people, 100,200 or
% % even up to 1000 epochs are normal for ML-convergence
%
% % The mu parameter _can_ be adaptive - using the cross entropy and when
% % analyzing the isolated training it looks very promisig. However, is
% % later use I found this is not as stable as a fixed learning rate.
% % mu = 0.1 worked good for me
%
% % Longer orders/ filter length are not always better. For me order=11
% % was good.
%
% % Delay factor (delta) is good when the order is also increased. With
% % order = 11, a delta of =4 shows good results
