Abstract

A decoding device for deinterleaving data includes a write address generator, a read address generator, and a memory device. According to a method for deinterleaving data, the write address generator generates a write address according to parameters corresponding to the interleaving characteristics of an input signal. The write addresses are offset according to the parameters in order to apply a deinterleaving function to the input data. The read address generator generates a read address so as to sequentially read the stored data, to provide deinterleaved output data.
