“…Step 5: The bit labelling follows the generalized rules to analyse the design-metric for the codebook constructed for each of the users [25], [26]. The Minimum Euclidian Distance (MED) d min , for 16-star QAM MC, is 0.39 [8]. The point in subdividing the MC into sub-constellations is to accelerate the MED of the Sub-constellations S1, S2, S3and S4, that can be analysed by (8), where S represents the set of constellation points in sub-constellation, for i=1, 2, 3, 4 sub-constellations and 1 and 2 represents two distinct vectors in each sub-constellation It represents the MED between the two consecutive symbol vectors in a given subset of constellation, that results into 2.11 for S2 and S4.…”
