  • Abstract
    A method is given for comparing binary codes and higher-order codes of the orthogonal type. By choosing codes which have the same message duration, utilise the same bandwidth, and have the same information content, a fair comparison of their performance for different signal/noise ratios can be obtained. An example of this concept is given for a trigonometric code of 32 equally probable messages.
