Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A receiving device including: a demodulation circuit configured to generate first likelihood data of reception symbols based on a transmission format of the reception symbols, the transmission format being selected from transmission formats and including a modulation scheme applied to the reception symbols, the modulation scheme being one of amplitude modulation schemes, a processor configured to estimate a scale ratio of an implementation scale to a theoretical scale, the implementation scale being a scale of the first likelihood data, the theoretical scale being a scale of second likelihood data of the reception symbols, the second likelihood data being defined by a theory and not depending on an implementation of the receiving device, and to generate the second likelihood data based on the first likelihood data and the scale ratio, and a decoding circuit configured to decode the second likelihood data based on the transmission format.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A receiving device comprising: a reception circuit configured to receive radio signals transmitted from another device and to derive reception symbols from the radio signals; a demodulation circuit configured to generate first likelihood data of the reception symbols based on a transmission format of the reception symbols, the transmission format being selected from transmission formats and including a modulation scheme applied to the reception symbols, th…
