Abstract

A method and a device for generating a rate compatible code are described. In the method, a serial-concatenated code at a code rate that can be predetermined is generated. A message signal is partially coded by a first coding stage. A second coding stage is provided on the output side of the first coding stage. The code rate of the coded message signal can be set in a manner which can be predetermined by a controllable puncturer which is disposed in the signal path between the first coding stage and the second coding stage.
