METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING INFORMATION IN A BROADCASTING/COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A method and apparatus are provided for transmitting and receiving information in a broadcasting/communication system. The method includes comparing a number of bits of an information word to be transmitted with a predetermined threshold value; if the number of bits of the information word is less than the predetermined threshold value determining a first parameter pair; if the number of bits of the information word is not less than the predetermined threshold value determining a second parameter pair; determining a number of bits to be punctured based on one of the first parameter pair and the second parameter pair; and puncturing the determined number of bits to be punctured with respect to parity bits of a codeword generated by encoding the information word.
