Deinterleaving device for digital broadcast receivers having a downsized deinterleaver memory and deinterleaving method thereof

摘要

Disclosed is a deinterleaving device and method for digital broadcast receivers having a downsized deinterleaver memory. The deinterleaving device includes a memory having storage space for performing the deinterleaving in a number of deinterleaving units over the K groups of input data in correspondence with an interleaving unit at a transmitter; an address generator for reading data written in the memory and generating memory addresses for writing input data; read-enable unit and write-enable unit for reading and writing data written at the generated memory addresses; and a controller for controlling the address generator to generate the memory addresses for the input data in correspondence with the deinterleaving units, the controller controlling the read-enable unit and the write-enable unit to read data written at the memory addresses before writing the input data at the memory addresses.
