Wh. Sheen et Gl. Stuber, ERROR-PROBABILITY OF REDUCED-STATE SEQUENCE ESTIMATION FOR TRELLIS-CODED MODULATION ON INTERSYMBOL INTERFERENCE CHANNELS, IEEE transactions on communications, 41(9), 1993, pp. 1265-1269
The error probability of reduced-state sequence estimation (RSSE) for
trellis-coded modulation (TCM) on intersymbol interference channels is
evaluated. A method based on a stack algorithm is proposed to evaluat
e the union bound on the error probability for ideal RSSE which is a g
ood approximation to the error probability of real RSSE. The stack alg
orithm is employed because it provides a good tradeoff between compute
r memory and computing time.
