Abstract

See full text

Error rate control systems, methods, and computer program products request a data rate slow-down based on the status of the error rate. A linear penalty is generated if a data rate slow-down is requested, which is then used to determine a minimum distance between constellation points in a signaling constellation or alphabet. Because the minimum distance between constellation points may be directly related to the error probability, the error rate may be controlled through the linear penalty.
