Modifying, Combining Codes and Soft-Decision Decoding

by Kyle Simpson

In this chapter, several techniques are presented that allow modification of an existing code, or the combination of several codes, in order to achieve flexibility in the design of error correcting codes (ECC). Many of the best codes known to date have been obtained not from members of a known family of codes, but from modifying and combining codes (Brouwer and Verhoeff 1993).
