On the performance of integrated interleaving coding schemes

The correction of errors in bursty channels commonly utilizes interleaved blocks of codewords. Integrated interleaving coding schemes uses nonuniform redundancy in the interleaves that can be adjusted on the fly according to the error statistics of the channel. Based on the tighter theoretical evaluation, a closed-form analytical expression for its performance in terms of the word-error probability is formulated. A modified decoding algorithm of the Integrated Interleaving codes, which achieves a significant gain in performance, is proposed. The performance of this scheme within a given class of codes is optimized
