Abstract :
A new upper bound on the bit error probability using Chernoff´s bound of trellis code modulation (TCM) is introduced. It can be applied to a frequency-selective Rayleigh fading channel. The bound indicates a new design criterion, which is the product of the intersymbol interference (ISI) distance
