State transition and channel symbol functions for a family
of tailbiting trellis codes are presented. The code design is
such that one avoids the need to set tail bits to zero for initialization.
The mathematical structure of the Trellis that makes this property
possible is also instrumental in channel symbol assignment for
improved Euclidean distance distribution.
