Abstract
This article compares the performance (bit-error rate vs. signal-to-noise ratio) of two different interleaving systems, block interleaving and the newer helical interleaving. Both systems are studied with and without error forecasting. Without error forecasting, the two systems have identical performance. When error forecasting is used with shallow interleaving, helical interleaving gains, but less than 0.05 dB, over block interleaving. For higher interleaving depth, the systems have almost indistinguishable performance.
