Abstract :
New simple encoding and trellis decoding techniques for Golay codes, based on generalised array codes (GAGs) are proposed. The techniques allow the design of both (23,12,7) Golay and (24,12,8) extended Golay codes with minimal trellises. It is shown that these trellises differ only in the last trellis depth with different labelling digits.
