Abstract
A method of transmitting a data stream over a communication channel, the method comprising: providing symbol sets having different numbers of symbols; modulating data in the data stream that warrant different degrees of protection against noise onto symbols from symbol sets having different numbers of symbols, wherein which symbol set given data in the stream is modulated onto is independent of symbol sets onto which other data in the data stream is modulated onto; and transmitting the symbols.
Claims61
A method of transmitting a data stream over a communication channel, the method comprising:
- providing symbol sets having different numbers of symbols;
- modulating data in the data stream that warrant different degrees of protection against noise onto symbols from symbol sets having different numbers of symbols, wherein which symbol set given data in the stream is modulated onto is independent of symbol sets onto which other data in the data stream is modulated onto;
- and
- transmitting the symbols.
A method of transmitting data over a communication channel, the method comprising:
- transmitting data in simplex mode over the communication channel;
- and
- transmitting data in full duplex mode at different rates in different directions over the channel.
A communication system comprising:
- a communication channel;
- and
- first and second transceivers that communicate with each other over the channel in simplex and in full duplex mode;
- wherein data in full duplex mode is transmitted at different rates in different directions over the channel.
A transceiver comprising:
- a receiver for receiving data transmitted over a communication channel;
- a transmitter for transmitting data over the communication channel;
- and
- circuitry for modulating data for transmission over the channel by the transmitter that modulates data that warrant different degrees of protection against noise onto symbols from symbol sets having different numbers of symbols.
