Abstract:
1. A method for transmitting data, the method comprising the steps of: separating a plurality of coded bits into a plurality of bit streams; interleaving the plurality of bit streams respectively; interlacing the interleaved bit streams; collecting the interleaved and interlaced bit streams; selecting, at a code block unit, a group of coded bits to be transmitted from the collected bit streams based on a starting position corresponding to a redundancy version (RV) and an output bit sequence length; filling a circular buffer associated with the code block unit with the group of coded bits to be transmitted; and transmitting the selected group of coded bits at one or more transmitting antennas, wherein the code block unit is one of a plurality of code block units in a transport block and wherein each code block unit is associated with its own circular buffer, such that the transport block is associated with a plurality of circular buffers.
