Method for Rateless and Rated Coding Using Random Hash Functions

In one aspect, a wireless system includes an encoder configured to encode data using a spinal code which uses a function over the message bits to directly produce a sequence of constellation symbols for transmission. The wireless system also includes a decoder configured to decode the spinal code. The function may be at least one of a non-linear function and a hash function.
