1. A method of data transmission and recovery over a communications channel comprising:
- encoding, by an encoder, data using a forward error correction (FEC) code such that a plurality of encoded FEC frames results wherein each encoded FEC frame comprises a FEC codeword mapped to a plurality of symbols from a plurality of constellations, at least two of the constellations being different from one another;
transmitting the encoded FEC frames across a communications channel using a transmitter; and
decoding the received encoded FEC frames using a decoder at a receiver.

12. A system of data transmission and recovery over a communications channel comprising:
-
an encoder configured to encode data using a forward error correction (FEC) code such that a plurality of encoded FEC frames results and each encoded FEC frame comprises a FEC codeword that is mapped to a plurality of symbols from a plurality of constellations, at least two of the constellations being different from one another; a transmitter configured to transmit the encoded FEC frames across a communications channel; and a receiver comprising a decoder configured to decode the received encoded FEC frames. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
