BIT INTERLEAVER FOR LOW-DENSITY PARITY CHECK CODEWORD HAVING LENGTH OF 64800 AND CODE RATE OF 4/15 AND QUADRATURE PHASE SHIFT KEYING, AND BIT INTERLEAVING METHOD USING SAME

摘要

A bit interleaver, a bit-interleaved coded modulation (BICM) device and a bit interleaving method are disclosed herein. The bit interleaver includes a first memory, a processor, and a second memory. The first memory stores a low-density parity check (LDPC) codeword having a length of 64800 and a code rate of 4/15. The processor generates an interleaved codeword by interleaving the LDPC codeword on a bit group basis. The size of the bit group corresponds to a parallel factor of the LDPC codeword. The second memory provides the interleaved codeword to a modulator for quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) modulation.
