Abstract :
New convolutional self-orthogonal codes (CSOC´s) are generated by extending the work of Massey and Robinson. These classes of high-rate or low-redundancy codes are known to be threshold decodable. Actual applications have demonstrated the usefulness of these codes for satellite communications. Part I of this paper contains codes from rates 2/3 to 13/14, with code minimum distances varying from 4 to 51.
