FEC Encoder

This is a GNU Radio adaptor for any FEC encoder following the generic_encoder API in the fec module.

Input and output are flexible to accommodate encoders that, say, modulate their encoded results into complex or float types.

Generally, we would use the fec.extended_encoder Python implementation to instantiate this. The extended_encoder wraps up a few more details, like taking care of puncturing as well as the encoder itself.

Parameters

Constituent Encoder

An FECAPI encoder object child of the generic_encoder class.

Input Type

• Complex
• Int
• Float
• Short
• Byte

Output Type

• Complex
• Int
• Float
• Short
• Byte

Example Flowgraph

Insert description of flowgraph here, then show a screenshot of the flowgraph and the output if there is an interesting GUI. Currently we have no standard method of uploading the actual flowgraph to the wiki or git repo, unfortunately. The plan is to have an example flowgraph showing how the block might be used, for every block, and the flowgraphs will live in the git repo.
