Abstract
A multiple output transmitter is configured for transmitting a single input data stream over two or more spatial channels using OFDM signals. The transmitter includes a commutator to select bits from the single input data stream for two or more bit streams and two or more encoders each to encode bits of one of the bit streams. The commutator operates at a bit rate and sequentially provides the selected bits of the input data stream to the encoders. A spatial bit sequencer selects groups of encoded bits from each of the encoders and assigns individual bits of a selected group at the bit-rate to block permuters in a sequential manner to distribute bits from the selected group across the block permuters. The block permuters produce interleaved blocks of bits for an associated spatial stream. The commutator assigns bits of the input bit stream to more than one encoder to allow each encoder to operate at a lower rate.
