Patent ID: 7746944

Claim:
An electronic transmitter device comprising: a puncturing device, wherein the puncturing device comprises: a first and a second data output, wherein the puncturing device is configured to distribute an output data stream substantially uniformly in parallel between the first and second data outputs, wherein the puncturing device is configured to provide empty locations in the output data stream so that a number of bits of an input data stream corresponds, including with the empty locations, to a number of bits of the output data stream, wherein the puncturing device is configured to output, in addition to the output data stream, a signal which indicates a position of an empty location in the output data stream; and an interleaver arranged downstream of the puncturing device in a direction of the output data stream, and comprising: a first data input which is directly or indirectly electrically connected to the first data output of the puncturing device; a second data input which is directly or indirectly electrically connected to the second data output of the puncturing device; an n×m interleaver, n and m being natural numbers; a first shift register which is directly or indirectly electrically connected to the first data input; a second shift register which is directly or indirectly electrically connected to the second data input; and a matrix register; wherein in each case two bits are written in parallel into the matrix register from the two shift registers.
