On the construction of bounded-delay encodable codes for constrained systems
Henk D. L. Hollmann · IEEE Transactions on Information Theory · 1995
We present a new technique to construct sliding-block modulation codes with a small decoding window. Our method, which involves both state splitting and look-ahead encoding, crucially depends on a new "local" construction method for bounded-delay codes. We apply our method to construct several new codes, all with a smaller decoding window than previously known codes for the same constraints at the same rate.>
