Blind Identification of Block Interleaved Convolution Code Parameters
Most of the digital communication system uses forward error correction (FEC) in addition with interleaver to achieve reliable communication over a noisy channel. To get useful information from intercepted data, in non-cooperative context, it is necessary to have algoritihms for blind identification of FEC code and interleaver parameters. In this paper, a matrix rank-based algebraic algorithm for the joint and blind identification of block interleaved convolution code parameters for cases, where interleaving length is not necessarily an integer multiple of codeword length is presented. From simulations, it is observed that the code rate and block interleaver length are identified correctly with probability of detection equal to 1 for bit error rate values of less than or equal to 10-4

AN APPROACH FOR BER DETERMINATION USING LOGGED AERONAUTICAL TELEMETRY DATA
BER is regarded as the link-performance metric in a digital communication system. It is a function of Eb/N0 and is dependent on the modulation scheme used. This relation is often used in prediction of ground telemetry systems performance for a mission configuration. However, there is no objective way of comparing the post flight results, as BER measurement in a flight test is not practically feasible for want of transmitting sufficient reference bit patterns. In this paper, an indirect way of computing BER and, in turn, link Eb/N0 is proposed for a PCM/FM link based on the frame synchronised data logged by the ground telemetry equipment. Using known quantities like bit rate and frame rate, a quantity defined as frame loss rate is computed. Applying the relations between frame loss probability, frame sync pattern and SFID information in the PCM format, an approach for bit error probability is demonstrated based on field data. By using a sliding window over a fixed length of data, BER for the entire flight duration can be determined as a function of flight time with the step size of the length of data window.International Foundation for TelemeteringProceedings from the International Telemetering Conference are made available by the International Foundation for Telemetering and the University of Arizona Libraries.
