Abstract
Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a transmitter device may modulate a first set of bits into a first modulation symbol, selected from a first set of modulation points. The transmitter device may modulate a second set of bits into a second modulation symbol, selected from a second set of modulation points, where the first set of modulation points are a subset of the second set of modulation points. The transmitter device may transmit the first modulation symbol and the second modulation symbol to a receiver device. Numerous other aspects are described.
Claims30
An apparatus for wireless communication at a transmitter device, comprising:
- one or more memories;
- and
- one or more processors, coupled to the one or more memories, individually or collectively configured to cause the transmitter device to:
- modulate a first set of bits into a first modulation symbol, selected from a first set of modulation points;
- modulate a second set of bits into a second modulation symbol, selected from a second set of modulation points, the first set of modulation points being a subset of the second set of modulation points;
- and
- transmit the first modulation symbol and the second modulation symbol to a receiver device.
An apparatus for wireless communication at a receiver device, comprising:
- one or more memories;
- and
- one or more processors, coupled to the one or more memories, individually or collectively configured to cause the receiver device to:
- receive a first set of modulated symbols and a second set of modulated symbols;
- demodulate a first set of bits from the first set of modulated symbols using the first set of modulation points and the second set of bits from the second set of modulated symbols using the second set of modulation points, the first set of bits being a subset of the second set of bits;
- and
- combine the first set of bits and the second set of bits.
