Asymptotical analysis and comparison of two coded modulation schemes using PSK signaling - Part II

{ In this, the second part of the paper we analyze a multilevel coded modulation system using PSK signaling and transmitting over the AWGN channel. We reduce the analysis of the overall system to the analysis of each decoding level, considering them as a set of related channels. The concept of a \genie aided communication system" is introduced to simplify the analysis. A comparison with the conventional coded modulation system, studied in the rst part of this work, and some results concerning the synthesis and analysis of practical multilevel modulation schemes concludes the paper.
