Abstract :
The performance of a high rate projection code used with a trellis coded FM system operating in a meteor burst channel is described. Meteor burst communication has wide ranging applications, usually limited to low bit rates. The system described has been developed for the USAF Alaskan Air Command and can transmit at bit rates up to 90 kbit/s in a 40 kHz bandwidth. The projection code is a geometrical code which yields very large coding gain with relatively low complexity. Results are presented to illustrate the benefits derived by the use of the projection code
