Disclosed herein is a decoding apparatus for decoding an LDPC code, the decoding apparatus including: a message computation section configured to carry out a process of decoding received values, where notation F denotes a non-unity measure of the integer P, and outputting F messages; a shift section configured to carry out F×F cyclic shift operations on the F messages and output F messages; a storage section configured to store the F messages and allow the stored F messages to be read out or to store F received values cited above and allow the stored F received values to be read out; and a control section configured to control an operation to supply a unit composed of the F received values to the message computation section by carrying out at least a column rearrangement process or a process equivalent to the column rearrangement process on the received values. |
