ABSTRACT:
A system to communicate a superposition coded packet from a base station to a plurality of remote stations. At the base station, from a list of user candidates for superposition coding a most deserving user may be determined. Those user candidates with a requested data rate less than that of the most deserving user may be eliminated. A superposition coded packet may be compiled from the remaining user candidates. On receipt, the most deserving user may process the superposition coded packet by assuming a predetermined power allocation. Further, if a user successfully in decodes early, power may be re-allocated to another user.
