A two-reference-point-pair determining unit 101 determines two reference point pairs by selecting two transmission symbol points with their LLR computation target bit being 0 and two transmission symbol points with their LLR computation target bit being 1. An LLR computation unit 113 assigns weights to the two LLRs calculated for the two reference point pairs, respectively, followed by adding them, and further adds to the addition result a correction term that may be zero sometimes, thus computing LLR for the two reference point pairs.

When arranging J cyclic permutation matrices I(pj,l) with p rows and q columns (0≦j≦J−1, 0≦l≦L−1) in a row direction and also arranging L cyclic permutation matrices I(pj,l) in a column direction so as to generate a regular quasi-cyclic matrix having uniform row and column weights, a quasi-cyclic matrix generating unit 31 configures the regular quasi-cyclic matrix by combining cyclic permutation matrices I(pj,l) in each of which matrix elements whose row number is r (0≦r≦p−1) and whose column number is (r+pj,l) mod p are “1”s, and other matrix elements are “0”s in such a way that a plurality of cyclic permutation matrices I(pj,l) arranged at, e.g., the 1st row differ from one another.

A communication apparatus includes a storage unit, a row processing unit, and a column processing unit. The row processing unit repeatedly performs row processing to calculate a column-processing LLR for each column and each row in a check matrix. The column processing unit calculates a row-processing LLR for each column and each row of the check matrix, and repeatedly performs column processing to store in the storage unit the minimum value k of absolute values of the row-processing LLR. The row processing unit and the column processing unit alternately performs their processing. The row processing unit performs calculation using an approximate minimum value while the column processing unit cyclically updates the minimum k value of each row.

When carrying out puncturing of some redundant bits in an LDPC code having a check matrix of QC structure and LDGM structure, a puncture rule for preventing redundant bits which are chained to one another from being punctured is set up, and some redundant bits out of an LDPC-coded signal are punctured out of the LDPC-coded signal according to the puncture rule. As a result, redundant bits which are chained to one another can be left.

A communication device that transmits and receives LDPC-encoded information by using MIMO technology.

A regular quasi-cyclic matrix is generated with cyclic permutation matrices and specific regularity given to the cyclic permutation matrices. A mask matrix for making the regular quasi-cyclic matrix into an irregular quasi-cyclic matrix is generated. An irregular masked quasi-cyclic matrix is generated by converting a specific cyclic permutation matrix in the regular quasi-cyclic matrix into a zero-matrix using a mask matrix supporting a specific encoding rate. An irregular parity check matrix with an LDGM structure is generated with a masked quasi-cyclic matrix and a matrix in which the cyclic permutation matrices are arranged in a staircase manner.
