Simplex symbol assignment in circular trellis-coded modulation

This paper presents a method for the assignment of simplex signals in a circular trellis-coded modulation (CTCM) scheme. A background is given on both CTCM and simplex signaling. The CTCM trellis is then shown to have various properties that allow symbol assignment to be carried out in a systematic manner.
