Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided for receiving a broadcasting service in a digital multimedia broadcasting (DMB) system based on code division multiplexing (CDM). The broadcasting service reception apparatus and method can minimize inconvenience for a user when a receiver changes a broadcasting service. The receiver maintains existing broadcasting data stored in a buffer while changing the broadcasting service. After the data of a new broadcasting service requested by the receiver is deinterleaved while the existing broadcasting data is maintained, the deinterleaved broadcasting data is output to a screen and another output device. A reserved channel is set such that data of the requested broadcasting service can be deinterleaved.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for deinterleaving using an inner memory and an outer memory. The apparatus includes data receiving apparatus of a mobile equipment in a mobile communication system including the mobile equipment and a base station for transmitting data to the mobile equipment through a radio channel. The apparatus includes a deinterleaving unit having a deinterleaver and an outer memory separately located with the deinterleaver. The deinterleaver stores address information including an address of the outer memory and values corresponding to the address of the outer memory in an inner memory. The outer memory stores the data to be deinterleaved, and a decoder for decoding the deinterleaved data.

Abstract: Disclosed is a deinterleaving apparatus and a method for a digital communication system which can be simply implemented. The deinterleaving apparatus has a row counter for increasing a row counting value based on input data, a column counter for increasing a column counting value every row period set in the row counter, a plurality of synchronous counters corresponding to the row period, and for increasing a synchronous counting value every column period set in the column counter, an offset memory for storing offset values set in correspondence to interleaving delay depths of the input data by channel, and a deinterleaver memory for storing the input data at a write address generated based on the offset value. The input data stored in the deinterleaver memory is read at a read address generated based on the synchronous counting value. Accordingly, simple implementation of the deinterleaving apparatus is enabled.

Abstract: A device for detecting a timing synchronization, a method thereof, and a communication device using the same. The device for detecting the timing synchronization a timing synchronization detecting unit for outputting a timing synchronization discriminating signal, which corresponds to a difference between samples that are ahead and behind of the input signal by a semi-symbol period, respectively.

Abstract: A survivor memory device in a Viterbi decoder determines a final survivor path using a trellis diagram and decision vectors, and outputs decoded data corresponding to the determined survivor path. The survivor memory device includes a path existence information generator for receiving a plurality of decision vectors, and for generating first branch path existence information representing whether a branch path exists between each state and the corresponding next states in the trellis diagram. A plurality of units are serially connected with respect to the outputs of the path existence information generator.

Abstract: A decoding apparatus for decoding input data using a Viterbi algorithm includes a first unit for repetitively performing determination of a survivor path corresponding to each state at each time unit based on the input data and a Trellis diagram, and for generating decision vectors and path number information whenever a branch path is determined. A second unit is provided for storing the decision vectors generated in the first unit and for outputting path information representing each survivor path determined by the stored decision vectors. A third unit stores the path number information output from the first unit and the path information output from the second unit, and deletes the branch path information corresponding to the path number information of the first unit from the stored path information, while retracing the previous states during the time when the branch path to be deleted does not overlap the other survivor path having a branch path connected to the next state.
