Inhalt:
In this paper we look at the serial concatenation of linear block codes with a rate-1 recursive convolutional code (accumulator). In particular, we present results for extended Bose Chaudhuri Hocquenghem (eBCH) codes. These codes offer low error floors, good performance and more flexible rate choices than product codes. Reduced complexity list decoding is used to decode the eBCH codes in order to maintain low decoding complexity.
