An encoding and decoding apparatus and method thereof includes first and second soft encoders, a transmission channel, and first and second soft decoders. The first soft encoder performs a first soft encoding of input data to correct errors in the input data and outputting first soft-encoded data. The second soft encoder receives the first soft-encoded data, performs a second soft encoding to determine a success or failure of the encoding of the first soft-encoded data, and outputs second soft-encoded data. The first soft decoder soft-decodes data input through a transmission channel and corresponds to the second soft encoding, and outputs first soft-decoded data. The second soft decoder receives the first soft-decoded data, soft-decodes the first soft-decoded data corresponding to the first soft encoding, and outputs second soft-decoded data and additional information indicating the success or failure of the decoding of the first soft-decoded data.

An error correction coding apparatus includes a parity check matrix generation unit which generates a parity check matrix having a number of elements having a value of 1 in each row thereof, having a predetermined number of elements having a value of 1 in each column thereof, and having the other elements having a value of 0; a parity check matrix adjustment unit which receives the parity check matrix from the parity check matrix generation unit, searches the parity check matrix for a cycle forming group of four elements positioned at respective vertexes of a rectangle and having a value of 1, and when there is at least one cycle forming group, replaces the value of 1 of at least one element of the cycle forming group with the value 0 of another element, to output a adjusted parity check matrix without a cycle forming group therein; and an LDPC coding unit which receives the adjusted parity check matrix from the parity check matrix adjustment unit and receives an m-bit message word to perform LDPC coding.
摘要:
An apparatus for and a method of signal demodulation which reduces a number of calculations required for demodulating an M-bit codeword which has been modulated from an N-bit codeword. Probability data for each bit of the M-bit codeword is tested to determine if the probability data indicates a high reliability of being either a one or a zero. Bits having the high reliability are compared with corresponding bits in each of a plurality of reference codewords and the codewords having bits which match the corresponding bits having the high reliability are used along with the probability data to calculate a probability of each bit of the N-bit codeword. As a number of bits having the high reliability increases, a number of calculations required to calculate the probability of each bit of the N-bit codeword decreases.

A soft demodulation method and apparatus including calculating partial sums for a unit of each predetermined number of bits of a codeword received from a channel; calculating a value of each entry of the decoding table by referring to the partial sums; and detecting a maximum among values of all entries of the decoding table and calculating a log-likelihood ratio (LLR) using the detected maximum.
