Abstract

A single convolutional code of fixed rate can be punctured to form a class of higher rate convolutional codes. The authors extend this pragmatic approach to the case where the core of the trellis decoder is a Viterbi Decoder for a punctured version of the de facto standard, rate 1/2 convolutional code.
