Convolutional code trellis diagram. A trellis is a graph whose nodes are ordered into vertical slices (time) with every node at almost every time connected to at least one node at an earlier and at least one node at a later time. The earliest and latest times in the trellis have only one node (hence the "almost" in the preceding sentence).
The commonly used rule of thumb of a truncation depth of five times the memory (constraint length K-1) of a convolutional code is accurate only for rate 1/2 codes. For an arbitrary rate, an accurate rule of thumb is 2.5(K - 1)/(1−r) where r is the code rate. [1]
Img.6. A trellis diagram for the encoder on Img.1. A path through the trellis is shown as a red line. The solid lines indicate transitions where a "0" is input and the dashed lines where a "1" is input. An actual encoded sequence can be represented as a path on this graph. One valid path is shown in red as an example.
The name trellis derives from the fact that a state diagram of the technique closely resembles a trellis lattice. The scheme is basically a convolutional code of rates ( r , r +1). Ungerboeck's unique contribution is to apply the parity check for each symbol , instead of the older technique of applying it to the bit stream then modulating the bits.
The example encoder is composed of a 16-state outer convolutional code and a 2-state inner convolutional code linked by an interleaver. The natural code rate of the configuration shown is 1/4, however, the inner and/or outer codes may be punctured to achieve higher code rates as needed.
Not from the actual human body, of course, but from the anatomical diagrams that purported to represent it. Goss was the esteemed editor of the 25th edition of the seminal classic Gray’s Anatomy . Internationally lauded as the authority on all things anatomical, Gray’s Anatomy had been considered essential for any would-be physician to own ...
