Convolutional Codes

Introduction
Block Codes: Code words are produced on a block
by block basis.

In Block Codes, the encoder must buffer an entire


block before generating the associated codeword.

Some applications have bits arrive serially rather


than in large blocks

Convolutional codes operate on the incoming


message sequence continuously in a serial
manner

Convolutional Codes Specification
A convolutional code is specified by three parameters
(n, k, m), where
⚫ k/n is the coding rate and determines the number of
data bits per coded bit
⚫ m is called the constraint length of the encoder where
the encoder has m-1 memory elements
