Spatial Multiplexing Communication System With Enhanced Codeword Mapping With Flexible Rate Selection On Each Spatial Layer And With Single HARQ Process

摘要

A method of data transmission includes encoding an information block according to a predetermined retransmission protocol to generate, for a single hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) instance, a transport block having information bits and error detection bits and channel coding different parts of said transport block using different modulation and coding schemes to generate one or more codewords for transmission to a receiving station.
