A method of transmitting symbols of a digital transmission constellation from a set thereof, ordered from a smallest to a greatest number of bits per symbol, may include identifying a first constellation from the set that is configured to communicate with a threshold error rate and has a greatest signal-to-noise ratio smaller than a signal-to-noise ratio of a received signal. The method may also include identifying a second constellation from the set that corresponds to a constellation with a number of bits per symbol immediately greater than the first constellation. The method may further include determining first and second probabilities of use of the first and second constellation that would generate an expected number of erroneous bits corresponding to the threshold error rate. The method may further include transmitting a symbol with a constellation selected randomly between the first and second constellation according to the first and second probabilities, respectively. |
