stds-802-16-tg4: Call for input - Data Encoding
Dear Colleagues,
I would like to receive input on the Data Encoding ASAP. As we
discussed, this section contains:
1. Data randomizer (scrambler)
2. FEC
3. Interleaving
Since we did not reach an agreement on these choices and based on Sanjay
recommendation, we have to include all the proposed/discussed methods in
this section. Since FEC and interleaving are strongly related each
other, I would suggest organizing the section as follows:
4. Data Encoding
4.1. Data randomizer
4.1.1. Method 1 - As in 802.11a
4.1.2. Method 2 - As in DVB
4.2. Encoding and interleaving
4.2.1. Method 1 - Convolutional
4.2.1.1. Convolutional encoder
4.2.1.2. Interleaving
4.2.2. Method 2 - Concatenated RS and convolutional w/ tail biting
4.2.2.1. RS encoder
4.2.2.2. Convolutional encoder
4.2.2.3. Interleaving
4.2.3. Method 3 - Block turbo codes
4.2.3.1. Block turbo encoder
4.2.3.2. Interleaving
4.2.4. Method 4 - Convolutional turbo codes
4.2.4.1. Convolutional turbo encoder
4.2.4.2. Interleaving
I can review the randomizer (4.1.1.) and the convolutional part (i.e.
4.2.1) which unfortunately are the only ones present in the current
draft) but I would need submissions on the other topics.
I am especially interested in getting detailed input from people that
proposed the methods (i.e. Yossi and Brian) but other people can also
submit.
Thank you very much in advance,
