1. A method for use in a base station (BS), the method comprising:
- generating a stream of bits for transmission, the stream of bits including data bits and piggybacked acknowledgement/non-acknowledgement (PAN) bits;
interleaving the stream of bits to create an interleaved stream of bits;
modulating the interleaved stream of bits to create a plurality of symbols, wherein each symbol represents a plurality of bits and has a least significant bit (LSB) position, and wherein no PAN bits are present in the LSB position of each of the plurality of symbols; and
transmitting the plurality of symbols.

Abstract
A method and apparatus are described. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) generates data bits and piggybacked acknowledgement/non-acknowledgement (PAN) bits and generates a plurality of symbols based on the data bits and the PAN bits. Each symbol of the plurality of symbols represents a plurality of bits and has a least significant bit (LSB) position, and no PAN bits are present in the LSB position of each of the plurality of symbols. The plurality of symbols are transmitted.
