Abstract

There is provided an interleaving method capable of reducing burst errors. Transmitted data includes a plurality of radio blocks. It is assumed that each radio block includes four burst signals and each burst signal includes data signals of 448 bits, flag signals, and a synchronizing signal. On the basis of the occurrence frequency of burst errors, the communication buffer capacity, the transmission delay time allowed between the transmission and reception, the kind of communication data, and radio wave propagation characteristics, the transmission side selects as the burst length of interleaving, a value from among values 4, 8, 16, 28 and 32 that are multiples of the number 4 of burst signals included in each of the radio blocks and that are divisors of the total number 448 of bits of data signals included in each of radio blocks. The transmission side transmits the selected burst length to the reception side, and conducts interleaving on the basis of the selected burst length. The reception side conducts deinterleaving on the basis of the burst length transmitted from the transmission side.
