Abstract

A mobile station capable of communicating via an uplink transmission to at least one base station in a Multiple Input Multiple Output wireless network can map codewords to a plurality of layers. The mobile station includes a plurality of transmit antenna and a controller coupled to the plurality of transmit antenna. The controller is configured to map at least one codeword to a plurality of layers. The codeword includes a plurality of code blocks. The controller is configured to generate the plurality of code blocks from a transport block such that the number of code blocks generated correspond to an integer multiple of a number the plurality of layers.
