Abstract
A transmitter can include an encoder configured to encode a data sequence based on a first encoding rate to generate a first encoded bit stream having first bits with at least one first repeated bit and encode the data sequence based on a second, different encoding rate to generate a second encoded bit stream having second bits with at least one second repeated bit, where the first and second encoded bit streams each fully represent the data sequence. A receiver can include circuitry configured to produce identified repeated bits by identifying a repeated bit in the first encoded bit stream and a repeated bit in the second encoded bit stream that correspond to a same bit position, combine the first encoded bit stream and the second encoded bit stream including the identified repeated bits to generate a combined bit stream, and decode the combined bit stream.
