Figure 3-3: Mapping of Coded Bits and Sector Numbers

The specific mapping is not important. You can derive other mappings by permutating subsets in a way

that preserves the main property of increased minimum distance among the subsets. However, you can

create any other mapping, including symbol mappings for 8-PSK, 16-PSK and others.

If you create another mapping, you must correctly connect the branch metrics created outside the IP core

to the input ports and correctly configure the polynomials GA and GB for the trellis generation.
