Abstract
A method of generating a data constellation at a client modem is provided whereby an optimum distance between data constellation data points may be calculated for a predetermined, acceptable error probability. An iterative process may be carried out using proposed data constellations which may be used to provide factors for calculating corrected constellations. Once a constellation is generated to satisfy the required probability of error, the constellation may be re-evaluated using CRC errors and detected noise variance at the client modem. Based upon predetermined levels of noise variance and CRC error, the constellation may be regenerated to operate at either a higher bit rate or a lower bit rate.
