Rate-Compatible Punctured Ring Convolutional Coded Continuous Phase Modulation

Abstract

In this paper, continuous phase modulation (CPM) with rate-compatible punctured ring convolutional codes is investigated. Some typical schemes with maximum normalized minimum squared euclidean distance (NMSED) are searched and given. The performance of bit error rate for rate-compatible punctured ring convolutional coded CPM on AWGN channel is simulated, and simulation results show that this system can provide good performance of bit error rate and variable-rate capabilities. Furthermore, simulation results also prove that the transmission efficiency increases when code rate is decreasing.
