Kahn, Fellow, IEEE Abstract—We propose a rate-adaptive transmission scheme by the worst-case channel state or a robust link connection is using variable-rate forward error correction (FEC) codes with a not guaranteed. Many recent communication systems adapt link fixed signal constellation and a fixed symbol rate, quantifying how parameters based on channel conditions (often time-varying), achievable bit rates vary with distance in a long-haul fiber system. The FEC scheme uses serially concatenated Reed–Solomon (RS) trading off bit rate (and thus spectral efficiency) for robustness. codes with hard-decision decoding, using shortening and punc- For example, asymmetric digital subscriber lines transmit turing to vary the code rate. An inner repetition code with soft data over discrete multi-tones, maximizing link capacity by combining provides further rate variation. While suboptimal, dynamically loading bits per frequency bin depending on the repetition coding allows operation at very low signal-to-noise ratio varying level of intersymbol interference (ISI), crosstalk, and (SNR) with minimal increase in complexity. A rate adaptation signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in each bin [1]. Similarly, many algorithm uses the SNR or the FEC decoder input bit-error ratio (BER) estimated by a receiver to determine the combination mobile wireless communication systems,
