<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a device and method for matching a rate of symbols channel-encoded with a non-systematic code or symbols channel-encoded with a systematic code, using a single structure, in a data communication system. <P>SOLUTION: The rate matching device includes a plurality of rate matching functions, the number of the rate matching functions being equal to a reciprocal of a coding rate of a channel encoder. The rate matching device can rate match the symbols encoded with a non-systematic code or the symbols encoded with a systematic code, by changing initial parameters including the number of input symbols, the number of output symbols, and the puncturing/repetition pattern determining parameter. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT |
