A Knuth-based RDS-minimizing multi-mode code

The Knuth codeword balancing approach is adapted to a DC-free, RDS-minimizing multi-mode coding scheme. Power spectra and sum variance metrics obtained with simulations are compared with those of the existing Knuth constructions, and error performance is evaluated for a binary symmetric channel.
