Trellis-based error-control (EC) codes, such as convolutional or turbo codes, are integrated with guided scrambling (GS) multimode coding to generate DC-free GS-convolutional/turbo codes. On the basis of the generators of the convolutional/turbo code, we employ puncturing or flipping to ensure that the EC-coded sequences are DC-free. At the receiver, convolutional/turbo decoding is performed before GS decoding to circumvent the performance degradation that can occur when GS decoding is performed prior to EC decoding. Performance of the new DC-free GS-convolutional/turbo codes is evaluated in terms of both spectral suppression and bit error rate (BER). It is shown that the new codes can provide superior BER performance and approximately the same suppression of low frequencies as the conventional concatenation of convolutional/turbo codes and DC-free GS codes.
