Abstract:  A telecommunication system and related methods. Implementations may include implementations of a method of encoding data for transmission, including forming a frame by encoding a message block using a short-block low density parity check (LDPC) code and an encoder to form a short encoded block, modulating the short encoded block using a modulation format and a modulator to form a modulated short encoded block, including the modulated short encoded block in a data payload of the frame, and transmitting the frame into a telecommunication channel with a transmitter. The frame may be one of a plurality of frames and each modulated short encoded block in each of the plurality of frames may have a constant number of symbols. The frame may include a modulation/code pair (ModCod) including information relating to the modulation format and the short-block LDPC code used for encoding and modulation.
