Abstract

The multilevel coding technique is used for constructing multilevel trellis M-ary phase-shift-keying (MPSK) modulation codes for the Rayleigh fading channel. In the construction of a code, all the factors which affect the code performance and its decoding complexity are considered. The error performance of some of these codes based on both one-stage optimum decoding and multistage suboptimum decoding has been simulated. The simulation results show that these codes achieve good error performance with small decoding complexity
