Abstract

Apparatus and method for transmitting spectral null sequences of a spectrally-constrained code over a partial response channel. A Viterbi detector receives the sequences from the channel and has a time-varying detector trellis structure derived from a running-digital-sum (RDS) trellis structure that requires each one of a set of quasicatastrophic sequences to be generated only from a trellis state corresponding to a respective preselected unique RDS value.
