Fig. 10. Set partition of an eight-PSK constellation.  One important step used in TCM is set partitioning technique [18]. The main goal of this technique is to provide subsets of channel symbols with maximal minimum distance within each subset. Fig. 10 illustrates an example of the set partitioning concept for an eight-PSK signal set. As shown in this figure, the set partitioning divides the overall signal set (channel symbols)
