AN APPARATUS COMPRISING A CIRCULAR BUFFER AND METHOD FOR ASSIGNING REDUNDANCY VERSIONS TO A CIRCULAR BUFFER

摘要

During operation of a transmitter a circular buffer is created where only column tops of the circular buffer are defined as a starting position for a redundancy version. Where the circular buffer is in sequence format, all po ssible redundancy versions are positioned as a function of the column index of the starting position of the first redundancy version.
