On forward error correction with adaptive decoding (Corresp.)
D. Mandelbaum · IEEE Transactions on Information Theory · 1975
A method is proposed that utilizes punctured Reed-Solomon (RS) block codes for adaptive coding. Part of the redundancy of the RS codewords is used in a convolutional coding framework. This enables some codewords to use more redundancy for correcting errors, while other adjacent codewords use less redundancy.
