Bf. Uchoa et al., A multilevel approach to constructing trellis-matched codes for binary-input partial-response channels, IEEE INFO T, 45(7), 1999, pp. 2582-2591
The multilevel coding approach of Imai and Hirakawa is used to construct tr
ellis-matched codes for binary-input partial-response channels. For the cod
es to be trellis-matehed, the signal constellations are selected according
to certain constraints, hut no conditions are imposed on the component code
s. New codes for the (1 - D) (1 + D)(n) channel compare favorably to existi
ng codes.
