Venkat, I assume you are working with a (2,1) trellis code, ie, 1 bit in two bits out. I also assume that you unpack each input byte to 8 single bits (carried in a byte) before trellis encoding and you pack every 4 2-bit worth bytes into a single byte after trellis encoding. This means that

Hi Achilleas Anastasopoulos, Thanks for the reply and clarification on trellis metric computation. I tried your idea to connect the ofdm demod block to trellis metric (to perform both hamming and euclidean distance metrics;as the soft or hard decision decoding can be performed on

= *Problem:* The channel decoding should be performed on the output of ofdm_demod block(ofdm_frame_sink ; the last block that produces demodulated OFDM symbols). But, the combined_ viterbi block performs the demodulation of BPSK or QPSK based on the signal constellation and provides

Hello Everyone, I'm trying to implement a coded OFDM system by using the trellis blocks. I used benchmark_ofdm and trellis coded modulation(gr_trellis) provided in the GNU Radio. I have achieved the transmission similar to previous post on VIterbi-OFDM ---by Tobias Schmid; but,I couldn't
