<p>The present invention provides an optimum combinational configuration of an encoder and an interleaver of an encoding apparatus with the characteristics of a fading channel taken into account. Signals xk and y1k transmitted to a multiplexer are interleaved and input to a multiplexer. This enables the channel interleaver required between an encoder and multiplexer of a conventional apparatus to be removed. The encoding apparatus includes first and second encoders (12, 13), first and second interleavers (10, 11) and a multiplexer (16) which multiplexes an output from the first interleaving with an output from the second encoder. Conventionally, a channel interleaver has been provided as a countermeasure against fading. However, in this case, the delay of the channel interleaver is extended to reduce the bit error rate. Therefore, the channel interleaver is removed, and the interleaver is connected in parallel in the encoder so that the delay allowed for one interleaver is extended, thereby improving the transmission characteristics. <IMAGE></p> |
