Method and apparatus are provided for encoding and decoding rate-((+1))/((+1)+1) TCMTR() codes, where s is the ECC symbol size in bits and K is the number of unencoded symbols that are interleaved with an (+1)-bit encoded block at the output of a rate-/(+1) encoder that encodes the r-th 5-bit symbol.-1 where+1) is the total number of bits to be encoded. Error propagation is reduced, thus allowing the ECC code to correct errors efficiently. Header error-rate is also reduced by eliminating occurrence of likely error events at the detector output. Although initially an RLL code may be designed for an ECC symbol size of s bits, the RLL encoding of the present invention may be used in conjunction with ECC schemes that utilize symbol sizes other than s bits.
