This paper introduces and studies the notion of an equidistant frequency permutation array (EFPA). An EFPA of length n = m, distance d and size v is defined to be a v
Given a linear code C, the fundamental problem of trellis decoding is to find a coordinate permutation of C that yields a code C′ whose minimal trellis has the least state-compl...
Permutation codes are a class of structured vector quantizers with a computationally-simple encoding procedure based on sorting the scalar components. Using a codebook comprising s...
