Line 63:

For example, if we want to make a code with rate 2/3 using the appropriate matrix from the above table, we should take a basic encoder output and transmit every second bit from the first branch and every bit from the second one. The specific order of transmission is defined by the respective communication standard.

The perforated convolutional codes are widely used in the [[satellite communications]], for example, in [[INTELSAT]] systems and [[Digital video broadcasting]] standards.
