Abstract

A system and method including multi-dimensional coded modulation wherein symbols within successive blocks of symbols are mapped using at least two different constellations to differentiate the symbols from each other. At least one data bit is encoded by an order of the symbols within each block of symbols. The receiver decodes the data by decoding at least one bit from the order of the symbols mapped with the first and second constellations.
