Abstract

A datastream of bits (which may itself be comprised of a plurality of datastreams as derived from a plurality of sources) are coded (21) and then interleaved (12) across a plurality of transmitters (25 and 26) and a plurality of subcarriers (27) as supported and shared by the transmitters. If desired, the bits can be mapped to corresponding symbols prior to transmission. The resultant information is transmitted simultaneously by the transmitters using the shared channel of subcarriers. Upon reception, the received signals are de-interleaved and decoded to recover the original datastream for each sources.
