Modulation code set (MCS) and LDPC (low density parity check) coding within multiple user, multiple access, and/or MIMO wireless communications

摘要

Modulation code set (MCS) and LDPC (Low Density Parity Check) coding within multiple user, multiple access, and/or MIMO wireless communications. Selective operation in accordance with different operational modes is performed. Operation within a first mode may correspond to that which is in full compliance with a given protocol, standard, and/or recommended practice, while operation within a second mode may correspond to that which provides additional/augmented capability and/or functionality with respect to that protocol, standard, and/or recommended practice. Operational modes selectivity may be made between proprietary and non-proprietary modes of operation. All available modulation coding sets (MCSs) may be in employed by providing such multi-mode operation. When operating within one of the operational modes (e.g., proprietary), a signal is generated to include an integer number of data bits per orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol using any desired operation (e.g., floor, ceiling, rounding, etc.).

1. A wireless communication device comprising:
a baseband processing module configured to:
process first information bits using a first modulation coding set (MCS) to generate a first orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbol, wherein the first MCS is selected from a wireless communication protocol that includes a plurality of MCSs; andprocess second information bits using a second MCS that is excluded from the wireless communication protocol to generate a second OFDM symbol, wherein the second MCS is based on an integer number of data bits that is a product of a number of coded bits per OFDM symbol multiplied by a coding rate when the product is an integer value and that is based on a rounding product term function of the product when the product is a non-integer integer value, wherein the second MCS includes a modulation of 256 quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) and a code rate of 5/6 or a modulation of 64 QAM and a code rate of 3/4; and a radio configured to transmit the first and second OFDM symbols to at least one additional wireless communication device.
