Patent ID: 8917730

Claim:
A decoding method, comprising: acquiring a decoding channel IDentity (ID) of a Dedicated Physical Control Channel (DPCCH) and a decoding channel ID of an E-DCH DPCCH (E-DPCCH) of a user according to a user ID of the user; de-mapping Transport Format Combination Indicator (TFCI) symbols in the DPCCH and Enhanced TFCI (E-TFCI) symbols in the E-DPCCH, and storing the de-mapped symbols according to the decoding channel ID; and selecting a symbol queue to be decoded according to priorities of symbol queues of the DPCCH and the E-DPCCH, reading out symbols corresponding to the selected symbol queue from the de-mapped symbols according to the decoding channel ID of the selected symbol queue, and decoding the read symbols, wherein the DPCCH contains a 10 ms TFCI symbol queue, and the E-DPCCH contains a 2 ms E-TFCI symbol queue and a 10 ms E-TFCI symbol queue; wherein priorities of the 2 ms E-TFCI symbol queue, the 10 ms E-TFCI symbol queue and the 10 ms TFCI symbol queue are progressively lowered.
