Abstract

A new class of charge constrained (dc-free) convolutional codes is presented. They are constructed based on error-correcting convolutional codes and can be encoded and decoded using convolutional encoders and decoders with slight modifications. The dc-free error-correcting codes are especially well suited for applications in high-speed noisy channels and optical fiber communication systems.
