文摘In the bit-interleaved coded modulation with iterative decoding,it is desired that any two Hamming neighbors,i.e..signal constellation points whose binary labels are at unit Hamming distance,be separated by a large Euclidean distance.This paper determines the mappings for the 32-ary fourdimensional generalized cross constellation(32-4D-GCC) so that the minimum squared Euclidean distance d_(min)~2 between Hamming neighbors is maximized.Among such mappings,those with minimum multiplicity N(d_(min)~2) are selected.To reduce the large search space,a set of "mapping templates," each producing a collection of mappings with the same set partitions of binary labels,is introduced.Via enumeration of mapping templates,it is shown that the optimum d_(min)~2=16and the optimum N(d_(min)~2)=16.Among thousands optimum mappings found by computer search,two of the best performance are presented.
