摘要:
Provided is a decoding apparatus capable of reducing the error rate of the decoding results and also the circuit scale. A computing unit computes a plurality of distances only for a number of code word candidates of code words from demodulated data, the number being smaller than a number of values the code words can express, the code words having a possibility of being transmitted. A decoding unit decodes the code words from the plurality of computed distances. This invention is applicable to a decoding apparatus for Long Term Evolution (LTE).

An error correction code decoding device comprises a first memory having a memory space like a matrix, a first decoding unit writing a first information into the first memory along a first direction, a second decoding unit reading the first information from the first memory along a second direction and a plurality of turbo decoders included in the second decoding unit, and differentiating access timing to a same row or same column with each other.

For the coded data that was transmitted via a communication channel, a known code portion thereof that is a code portion corresponding to known data is detected. When the known code portion is not detected from the coded data, the coded data will be decoded. When the known code portion is detected from the coded data, at least a part thereof will be replaced with normal data, and the decoding will be performed on the coded data after the substitution.

A decoding method is provided which is capable of achieving decoding of error correcting codes in a simple configuration and in a short time. In the method of decoding error correcting codes to perform iterative decoding which consists of forward processing, backward processing, and extrinsic information value calculating, a backward processing path metric value obtained in the previous decoding iteration for a window boundary is used as an initial value of the backward processing path metric value for the window boundary in the next decoding iteration.

A decoding apparatus includes a first decoder and a second decoder performing iterative decoding on each of a plurality of code blocks, each as a decoding unit, contained in a transport block, and a stop/end determination section determining whether or not to stop iterative decoding based on an output result from the second decoder. The stop/end determination section determines whether or not to stop the iterative decoding on each code block based on a determination result on whether error correction of iterative decoding in each code block is converted or not, and further determines whether or not to stop the iterative decoding of the transfer block based on the determination result in each code block. If it is determined that error correction of iterative decoding is not converted in one code block, the decoding process of the transport block containing the relevant code block is stopped.

A decoding apparatus includes a first decoder and a second decoder as a decoding processor for performing iterative decoding on received data, a hard decision section for calculating hard decision results based on logarithmic likelihood ratios L1 and L2 from the first and second decoders, and a stop determination section performing stop determination on whether or not to stop the iterative decoding on the received data based on the result of the hard decision section. The decoding apparatus completes one-time iterative decoding by executing decoding process in each of the first and second decoders. The stop determination section executes stop determination at the timings of completion of the decoding process in the first decoder and completion of the decoding process in the second decoder.
