摘要:
A decoder that receives, as input, probability information AMP/CR×yt. This probability information is obtained by dividing a channel value obtained by multiplication of received value yt and a predetermined coefficient AMP by the first additive coefficient CR for regulating the amplitude of the received value yt and the probability information 1/CA×APPt obtained by multiplying the a priori probability information APPt by the reciprocal of the second additive coefficient CA for regulating the amplitude of the a priori probability information APPt to a soft-output decoding circuit. The soft-output decoding circuit, which may be a large scale intergrated circuit, generates log soft-output CI×Iλt and/or external information 1/CA×EXt using additive coefficients for regulating the amplitude of arithmetic operations in the inside of the soft-output decoding circuit.

摘要:
Error correction coding and decoding according to a serial concatenated modulation system are carried out under high code rate. A coding apparatus 1 comprises three convolutional coders 10, 30 and 50 for carrying out convolutional operation; two interleavers 20 and 40 for rearranging order of data input; and a multi-value mapping circuit 60 for carrying out mapping of a single point on the basis of a predetermined modulation system. The coding apparatus 1 carries out convolutional operation whose code rate is “⅔” as coding of extrinsic codes by a convolutional coder 10, and carries out convolutional operation whose code rate is “1” as coding of inner codes by a convolutional coder 50, and a multi-value modulation mapping circuit 60 applies mapping to a transmission symbol of a 8 PSK modulation system to output it as a single code transmission symbol.

To carry out error correction coding and decoding according to a serially concatenated coded modulation system with a small circuit scale and high performance. A coding apparatus 1 is designed so that an interleaver 20 interleaves order of bits so that all weights are coded by a convolutional coder 30 with respect to data comprising a series of 3 bits supplied from a convolutional coder 10; the convolutional coder 30 makes as small as possible the total value of the hamming distance of input bit between passes to be the minimum Euclidean distance with respect to data of 3 bits supplied from the interleaver 20; and a multi-value modulation mapping circuit 40 causes the hamming distance of input bits in the convolutional coder 30 as the distance between signal point on the I/Q plane is smaller to subject data of 3 bits supplied from the convolutional coder 30 to mapping.

To appropriately express an erasure position of a code by a small-scale, simple-structured circuit, a soft-output decoding circuit (90) in each element decoder includes a received value and a priori probability information selection circuit (154) to select an input to-be-decoded received value TSR and extrinsic information or interleaved data TEXT, whichever is necessary for soft-output decoding. Based on inner erasure position information IERS supplied from an inner erasure information generating circuit (152), the received value and a priori probability information selection circuit (154) replaces a position where no coded output exists due to puncture or the like with a symbol whose likelihood is “0”. That is, the received value and a priori probability information selection circuit (154) outputs information which assures a probability in which a bit corresponding to a position where there is no coded output is “0” or “1” to be “½”.

A decoder has a reduced circuit dimension that does not adversely affect the decoding performance of the circuit. The decoder includes an addition/comparison/selection circuit added to give the log likelihood and adapted to compute a correction item expressed in a one-dimensional function relative to a variable and add a predetermined value to the correction term in order to provide a unified symbol for identifying the positiveness or negativeness of the log likelihood for the purpose of computing the log likelihood.

A decoding device and method for decoding an LDPC code with high accuracy while suppressing an increase of the scale of a device. A check node calculator (181) performs check node calculations including calculations of a nonlinear function φ(x) and its inverse function φ−1(x) of the nonlinear function so as to decode an LDPC code. A variable node calculator (103) performs variable node calculation of a variable node so as to decode the LDPC code. The check node calculator (181) has an LUT which receives a fixed-point quantized value expressing a numerical value with a fixed quantization width and outputs the result of the calculation of the nonlinear function φ(x) as a semi-floating point quantized value which is a bit sequence expressing a numerical value with a quantization width determined by a part of a bit sequence and an LUT which receives a semi-floating point quantized value and outputs the result of the calculation of the inverse function φ−1(x) as a fixed point quantized value. The invention can be applied to e.g., a tuner for receiving a satellite broadcast.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a decoding method and a decoder, a program, a recording-and-reproducing apparatus and a method, and a reproducing apparatus and a method that are suitable for decoding encoded data encoded by using a linear code on ring R. A low-density processing unit performs parity-check-matrix low-density processing, performs linear combination for rows of a parity check matrix included in an obtained reception word, and generates a parity check matrix according to the linear-combination result, thereby reducing the density of the parity check matrix used for decoding, at step S21. Then, at step S22, an LDPC decoding unit performs decoding by using a sum product algorithm (SPA) by using the parity check matrix whose density is reduced through the processing performed at step S21. Where the processing at step S22 is finished, the LDPC decoding unit finishes decoding for the reception word. The present invention can be used for an error-correction system.
