Performance Analysis of ADSL with Punctured Convolutional Code

We propose using punctured convolutional code for a Discrete Multitone (DMT) Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) system to improve the data rate performance of ADSL. The theoretical performance of the systems with single coding rate for all subchannels, and with adaptive coding rate for each subchannel are presented respectively. It is found that the data rate performance of the proposed system is higher than the uncoded system. key words: ADSL, DMT, punctured convolutional code
