    摘要: An error correction system includes an iterative code that employs an interleaved component code and an embedded parity component code. In some embodiments, on the transmission side, input signals received at an input node are encoded based on the interleaved code, which encodes an interleaved version of the input data to produce a first set of codewords. At least a portion of the first set of codewords preferably is divided into a plurality of symbols which are encoded based on the embedded parity code to provide encoded data. Similarly, in some embodiments, on the receiving side, received data are detected to produce detected information and soft outputs. The detected information is decoded based on the embedded parity code to obtain decoded information. The decoded information preferably is used, together with other soft information, by an interleaved decoder to generate reliability metrics for biasing a subsequent decoding iteration.

    摘要: In one embodiment, the present invention includes an error correction method. The error correction method comprises receiving a digital signal and processing the digital signal to perform a first error correction. The first error correction includes a first correction for data insertions or deletions and a first correction of data errors to generate a reference signal. The reference signal corresponds to the digital signal having been corrected to a first correction accuracy. The digital signal and the reference signal may be processed to perform a second correction for data insertions or deletions to generate a synchronized signal. The second correction of the digital signal is based on the reference signal, and the correction accuracy of the second correction is more accurate than the first correction accuracy.
