Abstract

Several coding techniques are combined to create a simple error control system capable of providing very low end-to-end symbol error rates over a digital mobile phone link. Interleaving is used to spread out the impact of deep fades, allowing for the use of shorter block codes with correspondingly simple encoders and decoders. The degree of error control provided by these block codes is then substantially improved through the adoption of a type-1 hybrid-ARQ protocol. The performance of this system is explored in detail for implementation based on Reed-Solomon codes
