A. Popplewell et Jj. Oreilly, NEW CLASS OF RUNLENGTH-LIMITED ERROR-CONTROL CODES WITH MINIMUM DISTANCE-4, IEE proceedings. Part I. Communications, speech and vision, 140(2), 1993, pp. 104-108
A new class of runlength-limited error-control codes with minimum dist
ance 4 is identified. These codes are simple to implement since they a
re formed by modifying linear codes. A comparison with the conventiona
l solution of cascading a runlength-limited code with an error-control
code shows that runlength-limited error-control coding schemes both h
ave considerably reduced complexity and in many cases also attain a ra
te improvement.
