A system includes a clock having a clock frequency. A first buffer configured to buffer a plurality of encoded data frames. An iterative decoder configured to iteratively decode, in accordance with the clock frequency. A first encoded data frame of the plurality of encoded data frames buffered in the first buffer. The iterative decoder generates a confidence result. The iterative decoder compares the confidence result to a predetermined value. The iterative decoder stops iteratively decoding the first encoded data frame based on the comparison of the confidence result to the predetermined value or based on a total number of decoding iterations. The clock frequency of the clock is based on a total number of encoded data frames buffered in the first buffer.
