Abstract
Disclosed is a method, performed by a transmit node, for transmitting N+1 bits to a receive node. N is a positive integer. The method comprises producing a modulation element by mapping the N+1 bits to a constellation point of a N-dimensional tuneable constellation, wherein the N-dimensional tuneable constellation is derived using a constellation tuning parameter. The method comprises determining, based on N, one or more physical resource elements for the modulation element. The method comprises transmitting, to the receive node, the modulation element, using the physical resource elements.

A method, performed by a transmit node, for transmitting N+1 bits to a receive node, wherein N is a positive integer, the method comprising:
- producing a modulation element by mapping the N+1 bits to a constellation point of a N-dimensional tuneable constellation, wherein the N-dimensional tuneable constellation is derived using a constellation tuning parameter;
- determining, based on N, one or more physical resource elements for the modulation element;
- and
- transmitting, to the receive node, the modulation element, using the one or more physical resource elements.
A method, performed by a receive node, for reception of N+1 bits, the method comprising:
- receiving, from a transmit node, using physical resource elements, a signal;
- obtaining, based on the signal and a N-dimensional tuneable constellation, parameter indicative of a likelihood of the N+1 bits being 0 or 1;
- wherein the N dimensional tuneable constellation is derived using a constellation tuning parameter;
- and
- providing, the parameter to a decoder.
