Abstract

Disclosed is a modem including a transmitter having a convolutional encoder for transforming each group interval digital data into an expanded bit sequence having symbol-selecting bits and subset-selecting bits forming a plurality of bit groups, with each bit group designating a 2-dimensional subset and the symbol-selecting bits being used to select one 2-dimensional symbol from each of the selected subsets, the transmitter further providing modulation of a carrier signal, and a receiver wherein synchronization of received frames of subset-selecting bits is provided by applying a parity check equation to a plurality of possible received frames of subset-selecting bits.
