1. An apparatus for transmitting a signal, comprising:
- a constellation providing part having a constellation stored therein;
a mapper configured to map a modulation symbol to a bit signal by referencing the constellation; and
a transmitting part configured to generate a signal corresponding to the modulation symbol and transmit the signal to a receiving apparatus,wherein the constellation includes a plurality of blocks, each of which includes 4 constellation points, and each block includes constellation points, each of which has an in-phase (I) axis component value whose difference from the I axis component value of a reference point of the block is a first difference value or a second difference value and has a quadrature-phase (Q) axis component value whose difference from the Q axis component value of the reference point of the block is the first difference value or the second difference value,wherein a difference value ratio obtained by having the second difference value divided by the first difference value is greater than 1, and wherein an added difference value obtained by adding the first difference value to the second difference value is a latitudinal or longitudinal length of the block.

Abstract
An apparatus for transmitting a signal in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention includes a mapper configured to map a modulation symbol to a bit signal by referencing the constellation. The constellation includes a plurality of blocks, and each block includes constellation points, each of which has in-phase (I) axis component value and quadrature-phase (Q) axis component value whose difference from the I axis or Q axis component value of a reference point of the block is a first difference value or a second difference value.

4. A method of transmitting a signal by an apparatus for transmitting a signal, comprising:
-
mapping a modulation symbol to a bit signal by referencing a constellation; and generating a signal corresponding to the modulation symbol and transmitting the generated signal to a receiving apparatus, wherein the constellation includes a plurality of blocks, each of which includes 4 constellation points, and each block includes constellation points, each of which has an in-phase (I) axis component value whose difference from the I axis component value of a reference point of the block is a first difference value or a second difference value and has a quadrature-phase (Q) axis component value whose difference from the Q axis component value of the reference point of the block is the first difference value or the second difference value, wherein a difference value ratio obtained by having the second difference value divided by the first difference value is greater than 1, and wherein an added difference value obtained by adding the first difference value to the second difference value is a latitudinal or longitudinal length of the block. - View Dependent Claims (5)
