Abstract
The authors aim to present an alternative multilevel (nonbinary) coding method, based on a ring of integers modulo-q (q is a nonprime integer number) which is suitable for coded modulation schemes. Some new concepts and definitions are introduced in order to build up a theoretical framework which allows a search for good multilevel codes. Such classes of block codes are also presented together with their interesting properties. Such codes can be used not only in q-PSK modulations, but also in q-QAM modulations by making a simple adaptation.

Soft Decoding of Integer Codes and Their Application to Coded Modulation

TL;DR: Comparison of symbol error probability (SEP) versus signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) between soft and hard decoding using integer coded modulation shows that at least 2dB coding gain can be obtained.

Ring-TCM for M-PSK modulation: AWGN channels and DSP implementation

TL;DR: The authors' objective is to present a code design strategy and implementation of a coded modulation technique based on rings of integers modulo-M based on AWGN-optimised nonrotational invariant and transparent ring-TCM codes suitable for M-PSK modulation.

Array codes over rings and their trellis decoding

TL;DR: It is shown that array codes over Z4 and Z8 provide a twofold and threefold increase, respectively, in spectral efficiency as well as a higher coding gain over uncoded transmission and a much larger codebook than that obtained with the same array code over GF(2) for similar code parameters.

Turbo codes with symmetric and asymmetric component codes defined over finite fields of integers

TL;DR: This paper investigates turbo codes based on two component recursive systematic convolutional codes defined over a finite field of integers and shows good performance improvements when compared to binary and quaternary turbo codes with same throughput.
