Abstract: in a probabilistic amplitude shaping (pas) system, a distribution matching (dm) component may receive a uniform bit sequence with equal probabilities, which may be converted into symbols with a desired probability distribution (e.g., gaussian). for example, the probability distribution may use inner constellation points associated with a lower energy and/or power more frequently and outer constellation points associated with a higher energy and/or power less frequently. in general, the dm component may map binary bits to positive amplitudes with a non-uniform distribution according to a dm rate that is based at least in part on a signal-to-noise ratio (snr), which may vary significantly in a spatial and frequency selective wireless channel. accordingly, some aspects described herein relate to configuring dm parameters and codeword and resource mappings in a spatial and frequency selective wireless channel.
