Abstract :
This paper describes the active burst distance for convolutional codes. The unequal error protection for information sequences are used to formulate a theorem on the error-correcting capability of the generator matrix and set state paths in the encoder state-transition diagram correspond to code sequences. Therefore the active-distance concepts are used to characterize the error patterns.
