摘要:
Disclosed is a system and method for improving efficiency and overall capacity of data transmission within a given bandwidth in a GPRS/EDGE wireless air-link channel. A GPRS data terminal, mobile unit and/or other end-user equipment is equipped with a (specially designed) Trellis coder that replaces the traditional cyclic coder and allows encoding and decoding of data via the Trellis code algorithm. Trellis coder eliminates errors in data transmission, increases capacity in a given bandwidth, and corrects problems with fading channels associated with wireless transmission. The Trellis coder is also utilized for voice transmission and may be fabricated on an integrated circuit for utilization within hand-held devices.
