In references [1, 2], triple multipulse position modulated (TPPM) signaling has been introduced as a very reliable format for optical communication channels. In this article, such a multipulse model is extended to the Steiner quadruple pulse system (SQS). Considering a threshold demodulation scheme for a fully degraded optical channel, performance of the Reed‐Solomon coded model is evaluated and compared to the standard coded PPM, when similar information efficiency and closest bandwidth expansion are allowed. The gained results are very interesting. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
