METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR STORING LOG LIKELIHOOD RATIOS IN INTERLEAVED FORM TO REDUCE HARDWARE MEMORY

摘要

An apparatus and method for storing log likelihood ratios in an interleaved form comprising receiving a plurality of interleaved codewords (710); obtaining at least one log likelihood ratio (LLR) for the plurality of interleaved codewords (720); storing the at least one LLR in a memory (730); deinterleaving the plurality of interleaved codewords after the at least one LLR has been stored in the memory (740); and performing a bit decision of the deinterleaved codewords using the stored at least one LLR (750).
