Abstract: The present invention provides a method, data modulator, modem, computer readable medium and system for allocating bits to sub-carriers of data channel frequencies for spectrally efficient full-duplex transmission. Bits are allocated successively to a plurality of sub-carriers for a data channel based on minimal power consumption, a power mask for each sub-carrier, a bit capacity of each sub-carrier, and a predetermined data rate. Allocation of bits is ceased when at least one of: a predetermined total power budget has been substantially exhausted, power masks for the plurality of sub-carriers have been substantially exhausted, bit capacities for the plurality of sub-carriers have been substantially exhausted, and the predetermined data rate has been reached.

Abstract: A finger assignment system prevents the assignment of receiver fingers to the same multipath component and to avoid the inefficiencies associated with current schemes. The finger assignment system accomplishes this by setting an offset or delay difference between the offsets or delays assigned to any two fingers, and if the offset or delay difference is violated, adjusting the offset(s) or delay(s) of one or both of the fingers to differ from each other by at least the offset difference. In certain embodiments, the receiver establishes an offset or delay difference between the offsets or delays assigned to any two fingers which are receiving signals from the same antenna. If the offset difference is violated, the finger assignment system adjusts the assigned offset or delay of the weaker finger to differ from the assigned offset of the stronger finger by at least the offset difference.
