Abstract
Methods and apparatus for use in a multi-band OFDM wideband transmission systems are disclosed. A frame of source data is mapped by a transmitter for transmission using a first mapping. The frame of source data is then mapped by the transmitter for retransmission using a second mapping to increase frequency diversity. A receiver may identify source data that experiences fading and communicate the tone/frequency on which the fading occurred to the transmitter so that the transmitter may map the source data that experienced fading during transmission to another tone/frequency for retransmission.
