CODING METHOD, DECODING METHOD, CODER, AND DECODER

摘要

An encoding method of generating an encoded sequence by performing encoding of a given encoding rate based on a predetermined parity check matrix. The predetermined matrix is either a first parity check matrix or a second parity check matrix. The first parity check matrix corresponds to a low density parity check (LDPC) convolutional code that uses a plurality of parity check polynomials, and the second parity check matrix is generated by performing at least one of row permutation and column permutation on the first parity check matrix. A parity check polynomial satisfying zero of the LDPC convolutional code is expressible by using a specific mathematical expression.
