The sum of these maximum alphas is compared with a threshold value. Then, a decision on the end of decoding is taken. Simulation results show that the max\-log criterion offers the same performance as the sum\-alpha and sum\-log criteria, while maintaining the same complexity level. The max\-log criterion uses only the max operator to select maximum alphas and a summation. Therefore, the proposed criterion is faster and offers lower complexity."]
