System and method of demodulation by adapting constellation values based on statistic distributions of received data symbols. To determine an adapted constellation, an expected ratio of received symbols with values in a certain range is preset based on an expected statistic distribution of data symbols across the multiple constellations. For a set of received symbols, a count ratio of symbols falling in a first range to all the symbols in the set is compared with the expected ratio, where the first range is defined as below a first value. The first value is repeatedly adjusted to adjust the first range until the count ratio equals the expected ratio. The final first value is then designated as the optimal adapted constellation.
