Patent ID: 10411737

Abstract:
A transmitter is provided. The transmitter includes: a Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) encoder configured to encode input bits to generate an LDPC codeword including the input bits and parity bits to be transmitted in a current frame; a parity permutator configured to perform parity-permutation by interleaving the parity bits and group-wise interleaving a plurality of bit groups configuring the interleaved parity bits based on a group-wise interleaving pattern including a first pattern and a second pattern; a puncturer configured to puncture some of the parity-permutated parity bits; and an additional parity generator configured to select at least some of the punctured parity bits to generate additional parity bits to be transmitted in a previous frame of the current frame, based on the first pattern and the second pattern, wherein the first pattern determines parity bits to remain after the puncturing and then to be transmitted in the current frame.
