First Claim
1. A receiving and transmission method for receiving an up-link signal from a telephone and transmitting a first down-link signal and a second down-link signal to the telephone as a down-link signal, comprising:
- when the up-link signal is transmitted from the telephone to a base station;
receiving the up-link signal, wherein the up-link signal has information of a first data stream, the first data stream is modulated according to a QPSK; and
demodulating the up-link signal to produce the first data stream;
when the down-link signal is transmitted from the base station to the telephone;
scrambling a second data stream to produce a scrambled second data stream;
a first error correction code (ECC) encoding step for ECC encoding a data stream to produce an ECC encoded first data stream;
a second error correction code (ECC) encoding step for ECC encoding the scrambled second data stream to produce an ECC encoded second data stream;
wherein a scheme of the first ECC encoding step is different from a scheme of the second ECC encoding step, and wherein the second error correction code is changeable;
modulating the ECC encoded first data stream according to a QPSK to produce a first modulated signal and modulating the ECC encoded second data stream according to an n-level PSK or an n-level QAM to produce a second modulated signal, wherein the data stream includes information representing the value of n; and
transmitting the first modulated signal as the first down-link signal and transmitting the second modulated signal as the second down-link signal.

Abstract
At the transmitter side, carrier waves are modulated according to an input signal for producing relevant signal points in a signal space diagram. The input signal is divided into, two, first and second, data streams. The signal points are divided into signal point groups to which data of the first data stream are assigned. Also, data of the second data stream are assigned to the signal points of each signal point group. A difference in the transmission error rate between first and second data streams is developed by shifting the signal points to other positions in the space diagram. At the receiver side, the first and/or second data streams can be reconstructed from a received signal. In TV broadcast service, a TV signal is divided by a transmitter into, low and high, frequency band components which are designated as a first and a second data stream respectively. Upon receiving the TV signal, a receiver can reproduce only the low frequency band component or both the low and high frequency band components, depending on its capability.
