convolutional code
(redirected from Convolution code)

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
convolutional code
A type of channel coding that adds patterns of redundancy to the data in order to improve the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for more accurate decoding at the receiving end. The Viterbi algorithm is used to decode a particular type of convolutional code. See Viterbi decoder.
convolutional code [‚kän·vəlü·shən·əl ′kōd]
(communications)
An error-correcting code that processses incoming bits serially rather than in large blocks.

Convolution code and Viterbi algorithm are known to provide a strong forward error correction scheme, which have been widely utilized in noisy digital communication applications like satellite and wireless communication.
The NXP MRX2000 features a Convolution Code and an Advance Code (LDPC), uses Maximum Likelihood, and includes a 2x3 MIMO detector - all of which boost performance.
Viterbi Decoding: This is also called trellis decoding and is a common technique used to decode a convolution code.
