Abstract
An analysis of interleaving based on performance benefits and performance costs is presented. Interleaving offers a communication system protection against bursty errors by re-ordering data before it is sent on the channel. The original order is regained by the deinterleaver after the channel and any error burst which may have occurred will be distributed by the deinterleaving process. Two measures of the extent of an interleaver's re-ordering are introduced. The cost of interleaving is assessed in terms of delay and memory requirements. These performance measures are considered in a full analysis and comparison of four interleaving methods: block interleaving, convolutional interleaving, pseudo-random interleaving and helical interleaving.
