This construction is analogous to the Forney construction for minimal conventional trellises. Unlike the case of conventional trellises where the Forney construction and the Kschischang-Sorokine (KS) product construction give isomorphic trellises, the generalization of the Forney construction presented here and the Koetter-Vardy adaptation of the KS construction do not give isomorphic trellises in general.}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/a-coset-construction-for-tail-biting-trellises/}, edition = {Proceedings of the International Symposium on Information Theory and its Applications (ISITA)}, }
