Zusammenfassung:This invention relates to a digital signal reproducing apparatus. This invention is applicable to an apparatus such as a video tape recorder and an optical disk drive, using a Viterbi decoder therein. Noise characteristics are equalized at points of discrimination by adding an equalized signal SPR4 of a differential system and an equalized signal SPR1 of an integrating system in a weighted manner, or by adding up metrics Maa-Mbb, (Ma', Mb') relative to amplitude reference values calculated for the two equalized signals SPR4 and SPR1, over each of relevant paths in a weighted fashion. The arrangements allow the inventive apparatus to avert noise-induced deterioration of discrimination accuracy.
