Waiting Time Distribution for Pattern Occurrence in a Constrained Sequence: an Embedding Markov Chain Approach

In this paper we consider the distribution of a pattern of interest in a binary random $(d,k)$-sequence generated by a Markov source. Such constrained sequences are frequently encountered in communication systems. Unlike previous approach based on generating function we have chosen here to use...
