Abstract :
New upper bounds for the performance of the optimum combined symbol-by-symbol (SbS) Abend-Fritchman-like equalizer and decoder are presented, and a related criterion for the actual design of good trellis-coded-modulated (TCM) schemes effectively matched to the distortion introduced by the intersymbol interference (ISI)-corrupted transmission channel is developed. The actual application of the proposed design criterion is also addressed
