Method for encoding/decoding digital data by using shuffling in digital video home system

摘要

A method for error correction coding (ECC) by using shuffling of a digital data supplied as a bit stream in a digital-video home system. Three methods are suggested for error correction coding/decoding. One method is where an outer ECC process for 18 ECC blocks is performed earlier than an inner ECC process for the 18 ECC blocks. Another method is where an outer ECC process and an inner ECC process for an ECC block are carried out sequentially and implemented in order for 18 ECC blocks. These two methods employ a predetermined shuffling algorithm. The third method is where an outer ECC process is firstly performed for 18 ECC blocks by using the shuffling algorithm, and then an inner ECC process is implemented by the sync block according to a recording order on tracks. The outer parity information is produced by processing the data from the shuffled sync block.
