Convolutional codes represent a cornerstone in modern communications, offering a method for continuously encoding data streams to mitigate errors due to interference and noise. These codes operate by ...

Abstract: The article discusses the data transmission using convolutional codes over channels where the noise process can be described by a Markov chain with two states: a simple binary Markov channel ...

Abstract: Recently, a novel variation of polar codes known as polarization-adjusted convolutional (PAC) codes has been introduced by Arıkan. These codes significantly outperform conventional polar and ...
