Abstract
The theory of geometrically uniform signal sets and codes over groups is applied to the case of L/spl times/MPSK constellations. Conditions for rotational invariance of group codes are discussed. The tables of geometrically uniform partitions found in Benedetto et al. (1993) are used to construct good geometrically uniform trellis codes over nonbinary Abelian groups. The present authors consider L/spl times/4PSK and L/spl times/8PSK constellations used to transmit information rates of 1 and 2 bit/two dimensions, respectively; and present tables of good codes over generating groups (Z4)/sup L/ and (Z8)/sup L/,for L ranging from 1 to 4. In most cases, they improve the tables of codes known so far. Moreover, the geometrical uniformity of codes allows a very easy performance evaluation, so that the authors also present a complete set of curves of error event probability for the obtained codes.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
