In Section 12.2-3, we demonstrated techniques for evaluating the error probability of a coded system with interleaving in pulse interference by using the cutoff rate parameter R0. Use the error probability curves given in Figure P12.29 for rate 1/2 and 1/3 convolutional codes with soft-decision Viterbi decoding to determine the corresponding error rates for a coded system in pulse interference. Perform this computation for K = 3, 5, and 7.
