Abstract
A coding and modulation apparatus and method are presented, particularly for use in a system according to IEEE 802.11. The apparatus comprises an encoder configured to encode input data into cell words according to a low density parity check code, LDPC, and a modulator configured to modulate said cell words into constellation values of a non-uniform constellation and to assign bit combinations to constellation values of the used non-uniform constellation, wherein said modulator is configured to use, based on the total number N of constellation points of the constellation and the code rate R, a particular non-uniform constellation, which has been optimized using the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR).
