A processor of an apparatus establishes a wireless communication link with at least one other apparatus via a transceiver of the apparatus. The processor wirelessly communicates with the other apparatus via the wireless communication link by: selecting a first shift-coefficient table from a plurality of shift-coefficient tables; generating a QC-LDPC code using a base matrix and at least a portion of the first shift-coefficient table; selecting a codebook from a plurality of codebooks embedded in the QC-LDPC code; storing the selected codebook in a memory associated with the processor; encoding data using the selected codebook to generate a plurality of modulation symbols of the data; and controlling the transceiver to multiplex, convert, filter, amplify and radiate the modulation symbols as electromagnetic waves through one or more antennas of the apparatus to transmit the modulation symbols of the data to the other apparatus via the wireless communication link.
