Abstract: Methods and techniques are described for increasing data rate at a high error performance in wireless transmission. A plurality of groups of p bits, wherein p is an integer greater than 1, is obtained. A transmission signal is generated, which includes, for a group of p bits dividing the group of p bits into a first subgroup of p1 bits and a second subgroup of p2 bits, wherein p1 and p2 are integers greater than zero. Based on the p1 bits, a sequence of modulation schemes is selected from a plurality of predetermined sequences of modulation schemes. The predetermined sequences are mutually different, and each of the predetermined sequences has length R, wherein R is an integer greater than 1. The p2 bits onto R subcarriers are mapped respectively by means of the R modulation schemes of the selected sequence. Finally, the generated transmission signal is transmitted.

Abstract: Methods and techniques are described for increasing data rate at a high error performance in wireless transmission. Each complex symbol of a sequence of complex symbols is mapped onto a respective subcarrier in a frequency division based system, which may be orthogonal or non-orthogonal frequency division multiplex. The sequence is a sequence concatenated from N sequences of complex symbols, wherein N is an integer greater than one, and each of the N sequences is a mapping of the data block onto the complex symbols of the respective sequence. The real parts of the sequence have been circularly shifted by a first number, cRe, of elements, and/or the imaginary parts of the sequence have been circularly shifted by a second number, cIm, of elements, wherein cRe and cIm are different integers greater than or equal to zero.
