[Viterbi, rate ½, ¾, or , k = 7 to IESS 308/309, 3 bit soft decision
decoding]
[Sequential rate ½, ¾, or
to IESS 312, 2 bit soft decision decoding]
Reed-Solomon outer FEC [Concatenated Reed Solomon outer codec to IESS 308/310] [Optional
variable code rate]
Reed-Solomon, Turbo, TCM, Viterbi, & Sequential are independent FEC options, all
may be fitted simultaneously.
Scrambling
IBS/SMS Synchronised to framing, per IESS 309
IDR & Closed Net With RS Coding: synchronised to RS overhead.
No RS Coding, non Turbo: V.35 self synchronising.
No RS Coding, Turbo: Synchronous 2 -1 (sync to TPC block alignment).
12
