In this paper, application of PTCM to 2FSK / 4PSK signals is studied. The generator polynomial of punctured trellis coded 2FSK / 4PSK, metric computation techniques, decoding complexity considerations are provided. Simulation results shows that PTCM of 2FSK / 4PSK archieves equal coding gain in com- parison to Padovani and Wolf's system with less decoding complexity.

In this thesis, in order to apply a punctured convolutional codes to the trellis coded modulation(TCM), an efficient punctured trellis coded modulation(PTCM) based on the decomposition of the metric into orthogonal components is presented. Also, a simulation is performed in an additive white Gaussian noise(AWGN) and a rician fading channel modeling the mobile satellite channel. The PTCM combines punctured convolutional coding with MPSK modulation to provide a large coding gain in a power-limited or bandwidth-limited channel. However, in general the use of the punctured convolutional code structure in the decoder results in a performance loss in comparison to trellis codes, due to difficulties in assigning metrics. But, the study shows no loss in performance for punctured trellis coded MPSK in comparison to TCM, and what is more, the punctured convolutional codes results in some savings in the complexity of Viterbi decoders, compared to TCM of the same rate. Also, the results shows that the punctured trellis coded .pi./8 shift 8PSK is an attractive scheme for power-limited and band-limited systems and especially, the Viterbi decoder with first and Lth phase difference metrics improves BER performance by the mobile satellite channel.

기존의 QPSK와 TC-8PSK 신호를 복호할 수 있는 pragmatic TCM은 3bit 연판정을 적용한 Viterbi 복호기를 이용하기 위해서 sector phase quantizer가 필요하다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위해서 sector phase quantizer가 필요치 않고서 간단히 심볼 변환을 이용하여 연판정 출력이 가능한 새로운 알고리즘을 제안해서 이에 구조 및 성능을 분석하였으며 아울러 터보 부호에도 적용하였다. 성능 분석 결과, 기존의 pragmatic TCM에 비해 Euclidean 거리의 증가로 약 1［㏈］의 성능 향상을 가져옴을 알 수 있다.
