SIGNAL DESIGN TECHNIQUES. VOLUME III. CERTAIN OPTIMUM SIGNALING WAVEFORMS FOR CHANNELS WITH MEMORY.
Abstract
In this report, certain optimum signaling schemes for digital communication over channels with memory are investigated. The channel is assumed to consist of a linear system with a rational transfer function followed by a source of additive white gaussian noise. Assuming binary transmission of equally likely signals and fixed average transmitter power, the probability of received errors is minimized for an arbitrary fixed signaling rate by selection of the best waveshape out of all those input signals which yield intersymbol interference-free waveforms at the channel output. It is then shown that an increase in signal alphabet size reduces the error probability, on the basis of equal rate comparison.
