The present invention relates to the communication field, and discloses a method and an apparatus for encoding, decoding, receiving and transmitting data to improve the encoding gain of the FEC encoding without increasing transmission overhead. In the present invention, no FEC encoding is performed for the minor bits in the block header of the information blocks. The block header may be a sync header. The bit indicative of the data type serves as a major bit, and is protected through FEC encoding; the bit for the only purpose of block synchronization serves as a minor bit, which is not involved in the FEC encoding and decoding. When the buffered data are deficient, padding blocks are padded into the buffer to trigger the FEC encoding in time; after the FEC encoding, the padding block is removed from the encoding result, thus avoiding transmission of unnecessary data. |
