Transport block transmission method and transmission device
A transmission device in a wireless communication system attaches a cyclic redundancy check (CRC) code having a predetermined length to a code block (CB) acquired from a transport block (TB). The predetermined length according to the present invention depends on a code rate associated with the TB.
1. A method of transmitting a transport block (TB) by a transmitting device in a wireless communication system, the method comprising:
attaching a TB CRC code to the TB to produce a TB CRC-attached TB;
segmenting the TB CRC-attached TB to produce a plurality of code blocks (CBs);
determining whether to attach a code block (CB) cyclic redundancy check (CRC) code to each of the plurality of CBs;
based on a determination of attaching the CB CRC code to each of the plurality of CBs:
attaching the CB CRC code to each of the plurality of CBs to produce a plurality of CB CRC-attached CBs, and
encoding each of the plurality of CB CRC-attached CBs based on a low-density parity check (LDPC) code;
based on a determination of not attaching the CB CRC code to each of the plurality of CBs, encoding each of the plurality of CBs having no CB CRC code based on the LDPC code; and
transmitting the encoded CBs to a receiving device.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein a length of the CB CRC code depends on a code rate for the TB, and the method further comprising:
transmitting code rate information regarding the code rate to the receiving device.
3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the code rate information is a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) index.
4. The method of claim 2 , wherein the length of the CB CRC code is small as the code rate is low.
5. A transmitting device for transmitting a transport block (TB) in a wireless communication system, the transmitting device comprising,
a transmitter/receiver;
at least one processor; and
at least one computer memory operably connectable to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
attaching a TB CRC code to the TB to produce a TB CRC-attached TB;
segmenting the TB CRC-attached TB to produce a plurality of code blocks (CBs);
determining whether to attach a code block (CB) cyclic redundancy check (CRC) code to each of the plurality of CBs;
based on a determination of attaching the CB CRC code to each of the plurality of CBs:
attaching the CB CRC code to each of the plurality of CBs to produce a plurality of CB CRC-attached CBs, and
encoding each of the plurality of CB CRC-attached CBs based on a low-density parity check (LDPC) code;
based on a determination of not attaching the CB CRC code to each of the plurality of CBs, encoding each of the plurality of CBs having no CB CRC code based on the LDPC code; and
transmitting, via the transmitter/receiver, the encoded CBs to a receiving device.
6. The transmitting device of claim 5 , wherein a length of the CB CRC code depends on a code rate for the TB, and the operations further comprise:
controlling the transmitter/receiver to transmit code rate information regarding the code rate to the receiving device.
7. The transmitting device of claim 6 , wherein the code rate information is a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) index.
8. The transmitting device of claim 6 , wherein the length of the CB CRC code is small as the code rate is low.
