Several strategies for combining convolutional codes (CCs) and pulse
position modulation (PPM) in a direct-detection optical channel are
considered, including binary and 2<sup>n</sup>-ary PPM with rate-1/
<e1>n</e1> CCs, 2<sup>m</sup>-ary PPM with a dual-<e1>m</e1> CC,
and interleaved 2<sup>L</sup>-ary PPM with a rate-1/n CC. In the
latter case, J.L. Massey's (1981) concept of coding of <e1>L</e1>
separate component channels constituting a 2<sup>L</sup>-ary PPM
erasure channel is carried out for both the ideal photon counting
and the avalanche photodetection (APD) cases, providing a comparative
evaluation of the various strategies in terms of bit error probability
and achievable coding gain for different code structures and decoding
schemes
