Abstract: A transmission device configured to transmit a transmission bit string which is an arrangement of a unit bit string of multiple N bits includes: a conversion unit configured to convert the unit bit string into a converted bit string in accordance with a conversion table obtained by obtaining an error rate wherein a k'th bit out of the N bits is in error; obtaining an error expectancy which is an expectancy that a significant bit of the N bits in the unit bit string will err; and creating a conversion table that correlates the unit bit string and a converted bit string obtained by converting the insignificant bit of the unit bit string to a smallest error expectancy bit pattern which is a bit pattern that minimizes the error expectancy of the multiple bit patterns; and a transmission unit configured to transmit the converted bit string.

Abstract: A signal processing apparatus configured to process a signal transmitted via a transmission path where a waveform represented by a signal value of a particular symbol is stationarily distorted in accordance with values of symbols transmitted prior to the particular symbol, including the following elements: a receiving unit configured to receive a test signal which is the signal including symbols set to predetermined values via the transmission path; an obtaining unit configured to obtain the signal value of the particular symbol from the test signal received by the receiving unit; and a characteristic computing unit configured to compute a characteristic of distortion of the waveform represented by the signal value of the particular symbol in accordance with the values of the symbols transmitted prior to the particular symbol on the basis of waveforms represented by signal values obtained by the obtaining unit from a plurality of test signals.

Abstract: In a signal processing apparatus adapted to process a signal transmitted via a transmission path, distortion of a waveform of a signal value of a specific symbol is predicted on the basis of a characteristic of distortion depending on values of symbols transmitted before the specific symbol, and the distortion is removed from the waveform of the received signal thereby producing a distortion-removed waveform. A comparison value is calculated for each allowable value of the specific symbol by subtracting a predicted signal value of the specific value from the distortion-removed waveform. A symbol value corresponding to the smallest comparison value is determined as the value of the specific symbol. An error suspicion level value indicating the degree of suspicion of being incorrect is calculated for each of the predetermined number of symbols, and already determined values of symbols are corrected in accordance with the error suspicion level values.

Abstract: In a signal processing apparatus adapted to process a signal transmitted via a transmission path, an acquisition unit acquires a signal value of a specific symbol from a signal transmitted via the transmission path, and a prediction unit predicts a signal value of the specific symbol for each of values allowed to be taken by the specific symbol, on the basis of values taken by a plurality of symbols transmitted before the transmission of the specific symbol and on the basis of characteristics of influences of the signal values of the plurality of symbols transmitted before the transmission of the specific symbol on the signal value of the specific symbol. A determination unit determines the value taken by the specific symbol, on the basis of the signal value of the specific symbol acquired by the acquisition unit and the predicted values for respective values allowed to be taken by the specific symbol.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a signal processing apparatus that processes a signal transmitted over a transmission path that causes stationary distortion to occur in a waveform representing a signal value of a specific symbol in accordance with a value of a symbol transmitted before the specific symbol.
