Abstract
Recently, linear codes over Z/sub M/ (the ring of integers mod M) have been presented that are matched to M-ary phase modulation. The general problem of matching signal sets to generalized linear algebraic codes is addressed based on these codes. A definition is given for the notion of matching. It is shown that any signal set in N-dimensional Euclidean space that is matched to an abstract group is essentially what D. Slepian (1968) called a group code for the Gaussian channel. If the group is commutative, this further implies that any such signal set is equivalent to coded phase modulation with linear codes over Z/sub M/. Some further results on such signal sets are presented, and the signal sets matched to noncommutative groups and the linear codes over such groups are discussed.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
