  • Abstract
    The performance of bit-interleaved coded modulation (BICM) with shaping (i.e., non-equiprobable bit probabilities) is studied. For the AWGN channel, the rates achievable with BICM and shaping are practically identical to those of coded modulation or multilevel coding, virtually closing the gap that made BICM suboptimal in terms of information rates.
