Abstract
New good rate-P/(P+δ) rate-compatible punctured convolutional (RCPC) codes for 2⩽P⩽7 and 1⩽δ⩽(n-1)P were found and tabulated, These codes have been determined by iterative search based upon a criterion of maximizing the free distance and were generated by periodically puncturing their rate-1/n mother codes of memory 2⩽M⩽6 and n=2. These codes are expected to find their applications in unequal error protection schemes employing Viterbi decoding
