A method for encoding an input data block (IDB) with a block encoder (TE). The block encoder is capable of processing consecutive coding blocks (CB) whose size has an upper limit (L CB ) which is smaller than the size of the input data block (IDB). The method comprises: (1) determining the length of the input data block (IDB) before encoding any of its data with the block encoder (TE); (2) dividing the input data block (IDB) to a plurality of segments (S 1 ... S N ) wherein all segments are of substantially equal size and no segment is larger than the upper limit (L CB ); and (3) processing each segment (S 1 ... S N ) with the block encoder (TE). If the last segment (S N ) is shorter than the remaining segments (S 1 , S 2 ...), fill bits (N FILL ) can be added to the last segment (S N ) such that its length equals that of the remaining segments (S 1 , S 2 ...). |
