Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided is a transmission method that converts an encoded block of data into first complex symbols each including a real component and an imaginary component, one or which is designated as a first component and the other as a second component; writes the first components and the second components of the first complex symbols respectively column by column into a first interleaver matrix and a second interleaver matrix having N R rows; applies a cyclic shift to each column of the second interleaver matrix in accordance with a predetermined shift pattern; and reads the first components from the first interleaver matrix and the second components from the cyclically shifted second interleaver matrix row by row. N R is a multiple of N RF greater than N RF (N RF being an integer greater than one), and the shift pattern for the cyclic shift includes only integers that are not a multiple of N RF .

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An interleaving method implemented by a transmitter that transmits a plurality of D-dimensional rotated constellations (D being a power of two) over N RF frequency channels (N RF being an integer greater than one), each D-dimensional constellation being composed of D/2 real components and D/2 imaginary components, the interleaving method comprising the steps of: writing a series of real components, column by column, into a first interleaver matrix ha…
