ENCODING/DECODING APPARATUS AND METHOD IN A COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

An apparatus for encoding an information bit sequence and generating coded symbols in a communication system which transmits packet data and the information bit sequence for controlling transmission of the packet data. An encoder encodes the information bit sequence at a preset coding rate and outputs coded symbols. A controller controls the encoder so that the encoder outputs the coded symbols when a frame length of the information bit sequence is a first length, and the encoder outputs partial symbols among the coded symbols when the frame length of the information bit sequence is a second length, the second length being shorter than the first length.
