Abstract

It was asserted in without proof, that a canonical generator matrix G(D) is trellis-canonical if and only if G(D) has the property that the span-length of the corresponding scalar matrix “G¯” cannot be reduced by a row operation of the form Row[m]= Row[n]D^s + Row[m], where s is an integer in the range 0⩽s⩽L and m ≠ n. In this paper, we prove a stronger result, viz., a basic PGM is trellis-canonical if and only if it is “row-reduced”. An efficient algorithm for converting a basic PGM into a trellis-canonical PGM is presented. We also correct an error in the general algorithm given in [3].
