Abstract

A communication apparatus is disclosed including a processor that performs a first encoding procedure to generate a first sequence of encoded bits from a first sequence of bits, and performs a second encoding procedure to generate a second sequence of encoded bits from a sequence of known bits; and a second sequence of bits comprising the first sequence of bits and the first sequence of encoded bits; and a transmitter that transmits a signal generated from the second sequence of encoded bits, wherein the second sequence of encoded bits is determined based on a length of the second sequence of bits.

Claims (23)

1. A communication apparatus comprising:

a processor that generates a first encoded bit sequence by, according to a first encoding procedure, encoding an additional bit sequence and a first sequence of bits, the additional bit sequence being comprised of all one bits and having a predetermined length, and generates a second encoded bit sequence by, according to a second encoding procedure, encoding:

a known bit sequence comprising at least one frozen bit with a value of zero; and

a second sequence of bits comprising the first sequence of bits and the first encoded bit sequence; and

a transmitter that transmits a signal generated from the second encoded bit sequence,

wherein the second encoded bit sequence is determined based on a length of the second sequence of bits and a matrix,

wherein the length of the known bit sequence is based on a difference between a length of the second encoded bit sequence and the length of the second sequence of bits, and

wherein the first encoding procedure changes based on a size of a payload.

2. The communication apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the known bit sequence is determined based on a length of the second sequence of bits.

3. The communication apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the additional bit sequence is added to the first sequence of bits before the first encoded bit sequence is generated by the encoding according to the first encoding procedure.

4. A wireless communication system comprising:

the communication apparatus as claimed in claim 1 ; and

a second communication apparatus comprising:

a receiver that receives the signal generated from the second encoded bit sequence.

5. A communication method comprising:

generating a first encoded bit sequence by, according to a first encoding procedure, encoding an additional bit sequence and a first sequence of bits, the additional bit sequence being comprised of all one bits and having a predetermined length, and

generating a second encoded bit sequence by, according to a second encoding procedure, encoding:

a known bit sequence comprising at least one frozen bit with a value of zero; and

a second sequence of bits comprising the first sequence of bits and the first encoded bit sequence; and

transmitting a signal generated from the second encoded bit sequence,

wherein the second encoded bit sequence is determined based on a length of the second sequence of bits and a matrix,

wherein the length of the known bit sequence is based on a difference between a length of the second encoded bit sequence and the length of the second sequence of bits, and

wherein the first encoding procedure changes based on a size of a payload.
