Wireless communication wherein channel estimation accuracy is improved while keeping the position of each bit in a frame, even when a modulation system having a large modulation multiple value is used for a data symbol. An encoding operation encodes and outputs transmitting data (bit string) and a bit converting operation converts at least one bit of a plurality of bits constituting a data symbol to be used for channel estimation, among the encoded bit strings, into 1 or 0. A modulating operation modulates the bit string inputted from the bit converting operation by using a single modulation mapper and a plurality of data symbols are generated.

The dynamic configuration and application of hierarchical modulation may be based on the respective priorities of the services and a condition of the concerned wireless network. The provision of the mixed services may utilize polar coding techniques. Control information may be mixed with data associated with the services.

A method of generating a phase modulated signal includes generating a sequence of phase modulated host symbols having continuous, antipodal phase transitions between adjacent ones of the host symbols representing different states, and generating a sequence of overlay symbols each spanning a respective set of the host symbols.
