Abstract: A convolutional interleaver included in a time interleaver, which performs convolutional interleaving includes: a first switch that switches a first connection destination of an input terminal of the convolutional interleaver to one end of one of a plurality of branches; a plurality of FIFO memories provided in some of the plurality of branches except one branch, wherein a number of FIFO memories is different among the plurality of branches; and a second switch that switches a second connection destination of an output terminal of the convolutional interleaver to the other end of one of the plurality of branches. The first and second switches switch the first and second connection destinations, respectively, when the plurality of cells as many as the codewords per frame have passed, by switching a corresponding branch of the first and second connection destinations sequentially and repeatedly among the plurality of branches.

Abstract: A communication method includes executing a cyclic block permutation for a codeword generated based on a quasi-cyclic parity-check code including a repeat-accumulate quasi-cyclic low-density parity-check code, where the cyclic block permutation is permutation of cyclic blocks within the codeword, and mapping each bit of the codeword for which the cyclic block permutation is executed to any one of constellation point of a non-uniform constellation.

Abstract: In a transmission method according to one aspect of the present disclosure, a cyclic shift is applied to each row of an interleaver matrix in which each of a plurality of rotation components of each section is replaced with a cell, in which two rotation components are set to a real component and an imaginary component, by using (cyclic shift value k×floor(Q/max{D,(NRF×NC)}/2)) cells allocated to the row, and a value of k mod NRF varies in at least two rows of one section portion of a combined complex interleaver matrix in the cyclic shift.

Abstract: The invention relates to an elastically deformable composite material suitable to be processed further into sheet-like abrasive products, comprising a sheet-like supporting base coated or impregnated with a prepolymer material which obtains thermosetting properties when thermally post-cured, or consisting of a coated or impregnated supporting base, characterized in that the supporting base comprises at least one layer of bonded fibers selected among inorganic fibers and organic synthetic fibers, if necessary mixed with natural fibers. Moreover, it relates to a method for the manufacture of the composite material.

Abstract: The invention relates to a textile fabric for the base structure of printing blankets, which is characterised in that the fibres of the fabric are fixed by means of an organic film-forming polymer, which reduces the elastic properties of the fibre material and which is formed by treatment of the fibres with an aqueous solution, dispersion, emulsion or suspension of a polymer pre-cursor and subsequent cross-linking. The invention further relates to a method for the production of said textile fabric.
