Abstract:
1. An encoding method for performing low density parity check convolutional coding (LDPC-CC) of a time varying period of q using a parity check polynomial of a coding rate of (n−1)/n (where n is an integer equal to or greater than 2), the method comprising: using a prime number greater than 3 as the time varying period of q; receiving an information sequence as input; and encoding the information sequence using equation 1 as a g-th (g=0, 1, . . . , q−1) parity check polynomial to satisfy 0: where, in equation 1: “%” represents a modulo and each coefficient satisfies the following with respect to k=1, 2, . . . , n−1: a b v
