G. Cancellieri et al., ANALYSIS OF CONCATENATED REED-SOLOMON ENCODING-SCHEMES WITH FULL AND PARTIAL INTERLEAVING FOR SHORT DATA MESSAGES, European transactions on telecommunications and related technologies, 5(1), 1994, pp. 85-91
A concatenation of Reed-Solomon and repetition codes with symbol inter
leaving is considered for applications in which the message length is
limited and the probability of incorrect received symbols is high. An
analysis is developed with reference to a Packet Radio Network, using
Spread Spectrum modulation, simultaneously affected by random errors a
nd burst errors. The results obtained are compared with those derived
by numerical simulation. It is shown that a canonical formulation can
be used for the case of full interleavers, but it cannot be applied to
encoding schemes with partial interleavers. In the latter situation a
modified, improved, approach is proposed.
