Patent ID: 7720041

Claim:
A device for communicating with a mobile device, the device comprising: a transmitter configured to transmit a first modulation scheme, a first transport block size, and a first redundancy version to a mobile device, wherein the first transport block size is represented by a first number of bits and the first redundancy version is represented by a second number of bits; to transmit a packet based on the first modulation scheme to a mobile device; to transmit a second modulation scheme, a second transport block size, and a second redundancy version to the mobile device, wherein the second transport block size is represented by a third number of bits and the second redundancy version is represented by a fourth number of bits, and further wherein the third number of bits is greater than the first number of bits, and the fourth number of bits is less than the second number of bits; and to transmit the packet based on the second modulation scheme to the mobile device.
