Abstract:
1. A method for multiplexing data in wireless communication system comprising: encoding data bits to produce symbols to be transmitted in a data channel; specifying symbols without an encoding step to be transmitted in a control channel; generating a tile descriptor for designating tones to be used for the data channel and the control channel transmissions; generating a channel priority parameter to determine which one of the data or control channels paints on at least one of the tones first; generating a tone marker to identify which one of the data or control channels occupies one of the tones; generating a puncture bitmap to determine if one of the data or control channels can be punctured by another one of the data or control channels that is designated for the same tone; and multiplexing the data channel and the control channel into a new channel for transmission according to at least one of the tile descriptor, the channel priority, the tone marker or the puncture bitmap.
