Patent ID: 8327237

Claim:
A wireless communication device comprising: a transmitter configured to obtain a transport block comprising a sequence of bits, wherein A is the number of bits, a first cyclic redundancy check (CRC) coder configured to generate a first block of CRC parity bits on the transport block, the first CRC coder configured to associate the first block of CRC parity bits with the transport block, wherein a number of CRC parity bits in the first block is L=24, the first CRC coder having D 24 +D 23 +D 18 +D 17 +D 14 +D 11 +D 10 +D 7 +D 6 +D 5 +D 4 +D 3 +D+1 as a generator polynomial; a segmenting entity having an input coupled to the first CRC coder, the segmenting entity configured to segment the transport block into multiple code blocks after associating when A+L is larger than 6144; a second CRC coder configured to generate a second block of CRC parity bits for each code block, each second block of CRC parity bits generated using a corresponding code block, the second CRC coder configured to associate each second block of CRC parity bits with the corresponding code block, the second CRC coder having D 24 +D 23 +D 6 +D 5 +D+1 as a generator polynomial; and a channel encoder configured to encode each of the code blocks including the associated second block of CRC parity bits.
