Abstract:
It is possible to provide and an LDPC-CC (Low-Density Parity-Check Convolution Codes) encoder and an LDPC-CC decoder which performs an error correction encoding and decoding while reducing the amount of a termination sequence required for encoding/decoding the LDPC-CC encoding/decoding and suppressing degradation of the transmission efficiency. The LDPC-CC encoder (400) includes a weight control unit (470) which stores a weight pattern (475) based on an LDPC-CC inspection matrix (100); and a weight pattern (476) based on a check matrix (300) obtained by deforming an LDPC-CC inspection matrix (100). The weight control unit (470) controls a weight to be multiplied onto the outputs of a plurality of shift registers (410-1 to 410-M, 430-1 to 430-M) by using the weight pattern (475) when the input bit is an information sequence, and using a weight pattern (476) which makes a weight value to be multiplied by an inspection bit v2,t to be 0 when the input bit is a termination sequence.
Abstract:
A transmitter apparatus wherein a simple structure is used to successfully suppress the degradation of error rate performance that otherwise would be caused by fading or the like. There are included encoding parts (11—1-11—4) that encode transport data; a mapping part (3304) that performs such a mapping that encoded data sequentially formed by the encoding parts (11—1-11—4) are not successively included in the same symbol, thereby forming data symbols; and a symbol interleaver (3301) that interleaves the data symbols. In this way, a low computational complexity can be used to perform an interleaving process equivalent to a bit interleaving process to effectively improve the reception quality at a receiving end.
Abstract:
Provided is a transmission device which improves the error rate characteristic upon decoding when performing error correction encoding by using a self-orthogonal code or an LDPC-CC in a communication system using a communication path having a fading fluctuation, multi-value modulation, or MIMO transmission. In the transmission device, the self-orthogonal encoding unit (110) encodes a self-orthogonal code having a constriction length K and an interleave unit (130) rearranges a code word sequence so that the same modulation symbol includes an information bit of a moment i and a non-correlated bit of the information bit of the moment i in a multi-value modulation unit (150).
Abstract:
It is possible to demodulate a plurality of modulated signals transmitted from a plurality of antennas by using a comparatively small-size circuit with a preferable error ratio characteristic. Partial bit judgment units (509, 512) demodulates partial bits of the 64QAM-modulated signal by modifying which of the bits in the 6-bit strings constituting a symbol is to be demodulated depending on in which region of the IQ plane the reception signal point exists. This improves the partial bit error characteristic judged by the partial bit judgment units (509, 512), which in turn improves reliability of the reduced candidate signal point for use by a likelihood detection unit (518). As a result, it is possible to improve the error ratio characteristic of the final reception digital signals (322, 323).
Abstract:
There is provided an encoder that provides a termination sequence with a simple structure for LDPC-CC encoding and reduces an amount of the termination sequence transmitted to a transmission line. The LDPC-CC encoder (200) connects a first encoder (230) to a second encoder (240) to perform encoding and thereby carry out LDPC-CC encoding, the first encoder (230) performing encoding based on an partial parity check matrix for information bits (110) obtained by extracting a sequence corresponding to the information bits in a parity check matrix (100) and the second encoder (240) performing encoding based on a partial parity check matrix for parity bits (120) obtained by extracting a sequence corresponding to the parity bits in the parity check matrix (100). A termination sequence generator (210) generates a termination sequence including the same number of bits as the memory length of the first encoder (230) and provides the generated termination sequence as an input sequence.
Abstract:
A transmitting device and method enabling improvement of the reception quality on the receiving side when the LDPC-CC (Low-Density Parity-Check Convolutional Codes) encoding is used. The transmitting device (100) comprises an LDPC-CC encoding section (102), a sorting section (121) for sorting the encoded data (120) acquired by the LDPC-CC encoding section (102) into a first encoded data set (103_A) corresponding to the column number of the column containing “1” in a part of an LDPC-CC check matrix H from which a protograph is excluded and a second encoded data set (103_B) corresponding to the column numbers of the columns other than that, and a frame constructing section (a control section (106)) for constructing a transmission frame where the first and second encoded data sets (103_A, 103_B) are arranged in positions different in time or frequency in the transmission frame.
Abstract:
An MIMO receiver and MIMO communication system which can have a small hardware scale even if the number of antennas used for MIMO communication. In a radio communication device (200), a receiving section (220) receives a spatially multiplexed signal generated by mutually-different and spatially multiplexing transmission signals, a first signal demultiplexing section (230) subjects a linear operation to the received spatial multiplexed signal to demultiplex the spatial multiplexed signal, and a second signal demultiplexing section (240) demultiplexer the demultiplexed spatially multiplexed signal into the transmission signals. When the received signal is demultiplexed by a single demultiplexing, as the number of multiplexed spatial multiplexed signal increases, the demultiplexer becomes complicated, and the hardware scale increases. When the received signal is demultiplexed by a plurality of demultiplexings, the hardware scale is relatively small.
Abstract:
A transmitter apparatus wherein a relatively simple structure is used to suppress burst errors without changing the block sizes of encoded blocks even when the number of modulation multi-values is increased. An encoding part subjects transport data to a block encoding process to form block encoded data. A modulating part modulates the block encoded data to form data symbols; and an arranging (interleaving) part arranges (interleaves) the block encoded data in such a manner that the intra-block encoded data of the encoded blocks, which include their respective single different data symbol, get together, and then supplies the arranged (interleaved) block encoded data to the modulating part. In this way, there can be provided a transmitter apparatus wherein a relatively simple structure is used to suppress burst errors without changing the block sizes of encoded blocks even when the number of modulation multi-values is increased.
