Abstract

A cellular radio communication system for transmitting blocks of data over transmission links in which the quality of the transmission links are monitored. The system comprises a data storage means for storing sets of modulation scheme and forward error correction coding level pairs to give an optimum data rate at a predetermined bit error rate and a predetermined symbol rate for different quality transmission links. The database is interrogated and a modulation scheme and forward error correction coding level pair is allocated and applied to the blocks of data transmitted over a transmission link dependent on the monitored quality of the transmission link.
