Abstract
Embodiments of the invention relate to a first communication device that maps a set of MIMO layers (M, . . . , M) into two or more subsets of MIMO layers (S, . . . , S) based on a modulation for each MIMO layer (M) and selects a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) for the set of MIMO layers (M, . . . , M) based on a code rate Rfor a code word C and/or a modulation for a subset of MIMO layers (S). Further, the first communication device transmits the code word C on the set of MIMO layers (M, . . . , M) to a second communication device based on the selected MCS and transmits control information indicating the selected MCS and a result of the mapping of the set of MIMO layers (M, . . . , M) to the second communication device. The first communication device can thereby provide better protection of the systematic bits of the code word.
