CROSS QAM MODULATION-BASED SYMBOL MAPPING METHOD AND APPARATUS IN A MOBILE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A method for determining a bit pattern of a symbol in a wireless communication system using a cross modulation scheme. The method includes generating symbols with the cross modulation scheme, classifying positions of coding symbols by reliabilities of at least 3 classes according to an average bit error rate BER(ave) of symbols generated with the cross modulation scheme and a bit error rate BER based on transmission positions of the coding symbols in a modulation symbol during transmission of a packet with the cross modulation scheme, and determining a bit pattern such that higher-priority symbols are inserted into higher-reliability positions.
