Abstract :
Discrete Fourier transform codes (DFT codes) or real number codes have been studied and recognized as useful (as joint source-channel codes, for example) but are not stable under bursty losses. This paper introduces a two-channel DFT code with an interleaver and shows that its numerical stability far exceeds that of the corresponding single-channel DFT code (the ratio of the frame bounds for the two-channel system can be smaller by many orders of magnitude). This leads to a stable way of dealing with bursts of errors using DFT codes.
