Abstract

See full text

A communication system for transmitting variable rate data is disclosed wherein redundancy is added to the variable rate data to provide repetition symbols. The repetition symbol data is transmitted with symbol energy scaled in accordance to the rate of the variable rate data when the variable rate data is greater than or equal to a nominal data rate. When the variable rate data is less than the nominal data rate, the symbol data is transmitted at nominal symbol energy and redundancy is removed by transmission gating of a proportion of the transmission symbol data determined in accordance with the rate of the variable rate data. Furthermore, a receiver for receiving the variable rate data is disclosed which uses the redundancy in the transmitted data symbol stream to make a corrected estimate of the transmitted symbol data.
