Abstract: |
A high performance system and method for trellis coded modulation are provided by virtue of the present invention. In one embodiment, the trellis coded modulation technique optimizes code performance for a given implementation cost. Also, this trellis coded modulation technique provides optimal performance in the context of periodic symbol deletion, whether this deletion is due to intentional puncturing, the use of interleaving in the presence of fading, or the use of interleaving in an OFDM system used to communicate across a frequency-selective channel.

First Claim:
Show all 29 claims |
What is claimed is:
1. A system for providing trellis coded modulation to improve transmission via a channel, said system comprising:
- a convolutional coding system that produces a stream of trellis coded modulation symbols responsive to an input data stream, wherein a first portion of said input data stream is encoded according to a convolutional code to form in-phase components of said trellis coded modulation symbols and a second portion of said input data stream is encoded according to said convolutional code to form quadrature components of said trellis coded modulation symbols,
- wherein said convolutional code is chosen to optimize performance when said trellis coded modulation symbols are subject to periodic deletion.
