Performance Analysis of Convolutional CODEC for Distributed and Burst Errors

S.V. Viraktamath, Dr. Girish V. Attimarad

Abstract


Viterbi Decoders are employed frequently in wireless digital communication systems. Many digital communication channels are affected by distributed and burst errors. In this paper the performance analysis of Convolutional encoder and Decoder (CODEC) for the distributed errors and burst errors is done, considering different constraint lengths, generator polynomials. The hard decision with ½ rate coding technique is considered in this paper. Performance analysis in terms of error correction capability of CODEC is shown through VHDL simulation.

Keywords


Burst Errors, Decoder (VD), Distributed Errors, Scrambling Interleaver, Trellis Diagram.
