Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 4:
5. A method for wireless communication by a wireless communication device, the method comprising:
generating, by a medium access control (MAC) layer of the wireless communication device, a plurality of MAC protocol data units (MPDUs), each MPDU including a respective plurality of information bits;
generating, by the MAC layer, a first table that includes indications of a plurality of bit positions of a plurality of respective boundaries between the MPDUs of the plurality of MPDUs;
performing, by a physical (PHY) layer of the wireless communication device, an amplitude-shaping encoding operation on the pluralities of information bits of the plurality of MPDUs that generates a plurality of code blocks, each code block including a plurality of encoded bits generated by the amplitude-shaping encoding operation, the amplitude-shaping encoding operation having an intrinsically-variable coding rate;
generating, by the PHY layer, a second table in accordance with the first table and in accordance with the amplitude-shaping encoding operation, the second table including, for each of the MPDUs, an indication of at least one respective code block of the plurality of code blocks and an indication of a bit position within the respective code block at which a respective boundary of the MPDU occurs; and
transmitting, by the PHY layer, a wireless packet to at least one receiving device, the packet conveying the pluralities of encoded bits and including an indication of the second table.
