Fundamentals of Convolutional Coding, Second Edition, regarded as a bible of
convolutional coding brings you a clear and comprehensive discussion of the basic …

The cost of a number of sequential coding search algorithms is analyzed in a systematic
manner. These algorithms search code trees, and find use in data compression, error …

This new edition has been extensively revised to reflect the progress in error control coding
over the past few years. Over 60% of the material has been completely reworked, and 30 …

The application of digital methods to satellite communications requires the utilization of
modulation, multiple-access, and coding techniques. This book brings together theories …

Rapid advances in recording materials, read/write heads, and mechanical designs over the
last 15 years have led to the need for more complicated signal processing, coding, and …

Introduction to Convolutional Codes with Applications is an introduction to the basic
concepts of convolutional codes, their structure and classification, various error correction …

For iterative detection/decoding (turbo) schemes, we modify sequential decoding, which
contrary to a posteriori probability (APP) Bahl-Cocke-Jelinek-Raviv (BCJR) decoding, enjoys …

This paper discusses a number of coding techniques for future satellite communication; they
include Reed-Solomon error decoding for message blocks, probabilistic decoding …

The troublesome operation of reordering the stack in stack sequential decoders is alleviated
by storing the nodes in a systolic priority queue that delivers the true top node in a short and …

Comparisons are made of a genie-aided sequential algorithm due to D. Haccoun and MJ
Ferguson (1975), the Viterbi algorithm, the M-algorithm, and the Fano algorithm for rate-1/2 …
