DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DISTORTION-ROBUST DECODING

摘要

A device for decoding code symbols which are interfered with a distortion during a predetermined distortion time interval includes a reliability information generator to provide reliability information based on the code symbols and a decoder to decode the code symbols into code words. The decoder is configured to decode the code symbols based on weighted reliability information, wherein the weighted reliability information is generated from the reliability information by applying a first weight during times not coinciding with the distortion time interval, and by applying a second weight different from the first weight during times coinciding with the distortion time interval.
