Abstract :
The problem of digital transmission over a channel with phase ambiguity generated by a constant phase shift or (Doppler) frequency shift is considered. To remove this phase ambiguity differential encoding/decoding techniques are used in systems with combined modulation and coding, provided that the transmitted sequence is transparent to the phase rotations of the signal space. Necessary and sufficient conditions for a trellis-coded modulation (TCM) scheme to be fully transparent rotationally invariant are derived. Procedures for the design of fully transparent phase-invariant trellis codes (PIC), Doppler-invariant trellis codes (DIC), and phase/Doppler-invariant trellis codes (PDIC) are proposed. Examples are given to clarify the design procedures
