  • Abstract
    An upper bound on the minimum squared distance of trellis codes by packing Voronoi cells is derived and compared with previously known bounds. The authors focus on codes with small memory for modulation formats such as pulse amplitude modulation (PAM), m-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM), and m-ary phase shift keying (PSK). The bound is tight to search results for coset codes with a small number of states
