This paper proposes new symbol mapping method that can enhance the performance of trellis coded M-ary PSK compared with conventional symbol mapping methods in AWGN environment. Since the basic criteria of TCM design is Maximum Euclidean distance in AWGN, conventional symbol mapping method keep this basic criteria. In this paper, proposed new symbol mapping method uses both Euclidean distance and Hamming distance to design, while conventional methods make use of only optimal Euclidean distance. New symbol mapping method show the better BER performance than the other through computer simulation and error equations.
