Abstract
A method for embedded encoding of at least two types of information. A first message and a second message are received. The types of a first encoder and a second encoder are determined. The rates of the first encoder and the second encoder are determined. A first codeword and a second codeword are generated. A mapping rule for the second codeword and a coding rule for the first codeword are determined. The second codeword is mapped into a plurality of symbols using the mapping rule. A third codeword is determined using the first codeword, the plurality of symbols, and the coding rule. The third codeword is then transmitted. The third codeword includes at least two types of information.
