Abstract:
1. A wireless communication apparatus comprising: a reception processing section that receives control information, which includes a MCS (Modulation and Coding Scheme) and RV (Redundancy Value) information indicating a RV parameter, and transmission data, a start position of which the RV parameter indicates in data that is encoded; a RV parameter determining section that determines the RV parameter that is set based on the RV information; and a decoding section that decodes the received transmission data based on the MCS and the RV parameter, wherein: when a number of bits of the RV information is two, the RV parameter is set to any one among 0, 1, 2 and 3; and when a number of bits of the RV information is zero, the control information includes no RV information and the RV parameter is set to 0.
