Abstract:
1. A method, for data communication, the method comprising: receiving, at a first device via a channel of a communication medium, multiple data transmissions; determining, based at least in part on at least one signal characteristic of the multiple data transmissions, a data transmission from among the multiple data transmissions, the data transmission having a preferred physical data rate; determining, by the first device, a subsequent code rate for the channel for subsequent data transmissions from a second device to the first device via the communication medium based at least in part on a preferred code rate of the data transmission having the preferred physical data rate; determining, by the first device, a noise variability of the data transmission having the preferred physical data rate; and reducing the subsequent code rate, in response to the noise variability being above a first high noise threshold.
