  • Publication number: 20160065244
    Abstract: In a transmitting device, in interchanging to interchange a code bit of an LDPC code in which a code length is 16200 bits and an encoding rate is 8/15 with a symbol bit of a symbol corresponding to any of 8 signal points defined by 8PSK, when 3 bits of code bits stored in three units of storages having a storage capacity of 16200/3 bits and read bit by bit from the units of storages are allocated to one symbol, a bit b0, a bit b1, and a bit b2 are interchanged with a bit y1, a bit y0, and a bit y2, respectively. A position of the interchanged code bit obtained from data transmitted from the transmitting device is returned to an original position. The present technology is applicable to a case of transmitting data using an LDPC code, for example.

  • Publication number: 20160049960
    Abstract: In a transmitting device, in interchanging to interchange a code bit of an LDPC code in which a code length is 16200 bits and an encoding rate is 7/15 with a symbol bit of a symbol corresponding to any of 8 signal points defined by 8PSK, when 3 bits of code bits stored in three units of storages having a storage capacity of 16200/3 bits and read bit by bit from the units of storages are allocated to one symbol, a bit b0, a bit b1, and a bit b2 are interchanged with a bit y1, a bit y0, and a bit y2, respectively. A position of the interchange code hit obtained from data transmitted from the transmitting device is returned to an original position. The present technology is applicable to a case of transmitting data using an LDPC code, for example.

  • Publication number: 20160020835
    Abstract: A MIMO receiving system includes a MIMO antenna apparatus that receives a MIMO transmission signal including at least two MIMO transmission signal streams, wherein the MIMO transmission signal includes one or more MIMO transmission channels and wherein a MIMO transmission channel carrying one or more services includes two MIMO receive signal components covering a same frequency channel and being included in different transmission signal streams. A MIMO preprocessing apparatus preprocesses the MIMO transmission signal and outputs a multiplex signal. One or more receiving apparatus receive the multiplex signal from the output signal path to use a service contained in the single multiplex signal and output a service data stream.

  • Publication number: 20150156141
    Abstract: A data processing device includes a splitter in which an input stream made up of a plurality of packets is split, so as to generate split streams of a plurality of channels, of which the smallest increment is base band frames (BBFs) where the packets of the input stream are placed in consecutive order in a data field of the BBF which is the object of forward error correction (FEC).

  • Patent number: 9048902
    Abstract: A transmission apparatus and method for transmitting data within a multi-carrier transmission system including two or more transmission apparatuses configured to transmit same data. To avoid destructive interferences the transmission apparatus includes a signal input configured to receive multi-carrier signals carrying data to be transmitted, a distortion unit configured to distort the multi-carrier signals by use of a distortion function including a phase parameter for differently modulating phase of the multi-carrier signals, the distortion function being different from distortion functions used by other transmission apparatuses, whose coverage areas overlap with the coverage area of the present transmission apparatus, by using a phase parameter different from the phase parameter used by the other transmission apparatuses, and a transmission unit configured to transmit the distorted multi-carrier signals as a transmission signal.

  • Patent number: 9031173
    Abstract: A receiving apparatus for receiving signals in a transmission system transmitted based on a frame structure including signaling data and payload data. The receiving apparatus includes a receiver configured to receive a transmission signal, a frame demapper configured to demap signaling data blocks and payload data patterns from the frames of the frame structure of the received transmission signal, wherein a signaling data block is assumed to include a number of data corresponding to a number of a signaling data pattern, wherein the signaling data patterns are split into n signaling data portions, n being a positive integer, in which n signaling portions are mapped onto n or less frames, and a demodulation decoder is configured to separately demodulate and decode the signaling data blocks and payload data patterns to obtain signaling data and payload data.
