1. A method of enhancing data transmission in an ATSC M/H wireless communication link, comprising:
- turbo encoding a data block for transmission;
scheduling a plurality of portions of the turbo-coded data block for transmission during respectively corresponding transmit intervals that are temporally separated from one another; and
transmitting said portions of the turbo-coded data block during the respectively corresponding transmit intervals according to said scheduling.

Abstract
In an ATSC M/H wireless broadcast system, data for transmission is turbo encoded into turbo-encoded data blocks. The turbo-coded data blocks are processed for transmission by scheduling a plurality of portions of the block for transmission during respectively corresponding transmit intervals that are temporally separated from one another. The portions of the turbo-encoded blocks may then be transmitted during the respectively corresponding transmit intervals according to the schedule. The turbo-encoded blocks may be interleaved before portions of the blocks are scheduled for transmission.
