Concatenated Multilevel Coded Modulation Schemes For Digital Satellite Broadcasting, Robert H. Morelos-Zaragoza, Hideki Imai Jan 1997

Concatenated Multilevel Coded Modulation Schemes For Digital Satellite Broadcasting, Robert H. Morelos-Zaragoza, Hideki Imai

Faculty Publications

The error performance of bandwith-efficient concatenated multilevel coded modulation (MCM) schemes for digital satellite broadcasting is analyzed. Nonstandard partitioning, multistage decoding, and outer Reed-Solomon (RS) codes are employed to provided unequal error protection capabilities.

Multilevel Block Coded Modulation With Unequal Error Protection, Robert H. Morelos-Zaragoza, Marc P. C. Fossorier, Shu Lin, Hideki Imai

Faculty Publications

Multilevel block coded modulation (BCM) schemes with unequal error protection (UEP) are investigated. These schemes are based on unconventional set partitions that greatly reduce the error coefficients associated with multi-stage decoding of conventional BCM, at the expense of smaller intra-set distances.
