FORWARD ERROR CORRECTION ENCODING AND MODULATION WITH RELIABILITY DIFFERENTIATION

Abstract

This disclosure provides methods, devices, and systems for forward error correction encoding and modulation with reliability differentiation. In some examples, a transmitting wireless communication device may use a concatenated encoding technique to generate a set of encoded bits that conveys both information bits of a first priority and information bits of a second priority lower than the first priority. In other examples, the transmitting device may use a parallel encoding technique to generate a first set of encoded bits that conveys information bits of the first priority and a second set of encoded bits that conveys information bits of the second priority. According to aspects of the disclosure, the transmitting device can map encoded bits corresponding to information bits of the first priority to relatively higher reliability bit positions of a modulation constellation.
