Integrated Coding and Waveform Design Study.
Abstract
It is shown that error-correcting codes capable of correcting random/burst errors play a critical role in the design of reliable multiple-access and adaptive-array ECCM systems. A comprehensive investigation of effective block and convolutional coding techniques, as well as combinations of the above, is conducted for worst-case interference models which are applicable to a wide variety of digital communications systems. It is shown that essentially error-free communications are possible, even when significant portions of the received data are completely destroyed by interference, providing a proper code rate and decoding technique are selected. The results in this report may be used to select error-correcting codes to improve the performance of existing systems as well as to optimize the integration of the coding and waveform design in new digital communications network.
