Summary:Techniques to reduce the transmission overheads in a communication system are disclosed. In an embodiment, a method described herein relates to the elimination of redundant padding to realize an integer number of FEC code-words during the FEC-encoding process of transmission as well as the reduction/elimination of redundant padding to realize an integer number of transmission symbols during the subcarrier modulation mapping process of transmitting OFDM/ACMT/DMT symbols. The techniques are described in the context of a communication system based on the MoCA specification. Furthermore, techniques for channel-profiling, channel-estimation and bandwidth request/grant signaling that facilitate the realization of the method of reduction of transmission overheads in a MoCA system are also described.
