Method of transmission of a data packet, computer program, and transceiver device

Abstract

A transceiver device includes a controller arranged to identify a first set of control information within the data packet, and to re-map the data packet such that the first set of control information is mapped on bits known to be more robust. The transceiver device further includes a transmitter arranged to transmit the re-mapped data packet. The first set of control information holds information which enables for identification to combine soft bits from repeated transmissions at a receiver of the packet. The bits known to be more robust have more distinct value distribution in signal space of a used modulation and coding scheme than other bits. The transceiver device is arranged to transmit a data packet. A corresponding method, computer program, access point and station are also disclosed.
