Abstract

An encoding device and decoding device for improving an error floor while taking advantage of the features of a convolutional code capable of encoding/decoding an information sequence with an arbitrary length are disclosed. An error correction encoding section is provided with an LDPC-CC encoder and an LDPC-BC encoder. The LDPC-CC encoder acquires an LDPC-CC code word sequence by applying LDPC-CC encoding to a transmission information sequence. The LDPC-BC encoder acquires a parity sequence by applying LDPC-BC encoding to the LDPC-CC code word sequence. The LDPC-CC encoder further applies the LDPC-CC encoding to the parity sequence.
