Proposed is a bit-interleaver for an optical line terminal of an optical access network. The bit-interleaver contains a memory reader, that provides data streams at bit level to a space-time switch. The space-time switch reads within one input cycle up to N bit sets from the data streams. The switch switches within one writing cycle up to N bits onto up to its output ports, which provide respective output vectors. A number of N OR-function elements determine within the writing cycle respective single output bits. A number of N memory elements write within the one writing cycle a respective one of the output bits into a respective one of their bit sub-elements. A control unit that controls the reading of the data streams and also the switching of the bits by the switch. The control unit controls a choice of the writing addresses.

Techniques are described for joint encoding and decoding of information symbols. In one embodiment, a method for joint encoding includes, in part, obtaining a sequence of information symbols, generating a plurality of cyclic codewords each corresponding to a portion of the sequence of information symbols, jointly encoding the plurality of cyclic codewords to generate at least one combined codeword, and providing the combined codeword to a device. The at least one combined codeword may be generated through Galois Fourier Transform (GFT). In one embodiment, a method for joint decoding includes, in part, obtaining a sequence of encoded symbols, wherein the sequence of encoded symbols is generated through GFT, jointly decoding the sequence of encoded symbols using an iterative soft decision decoding algorithm to generate a decoded sequence, transforming the decoded sequence to generate a plurality of cyclic codewords, and decoding the plurality of cyclic codewords to generate a plurality of decoded information symbols.

A bit interleaver, a bit-interleaved coded modulation (BICM) device and a bit interleaving method are disclosed herein. The bit interleaver includes a first memory, a processor, and a second memory. The first memory stores a low-density parity check (LDPC) codeword having a length of 64800 and a code rate of 7/15. The processor generates an interleaved codeword by interleaving the LDPC codeword on a bit group basis. The size of the bit group corresponds to a parallel factor of the LDPC codeword. The second memory provides the interleaved codeword to a modulator for quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) modulation.

Multiple data permutation operations in respective different dimensions are used to provide an overall effective data permutation using smaller blocks of data in each permutation than would be used in directly implementing the overall permutation in a single permutation operation. Data that has been permuted in one permutation operation is block interleaved, and the interleaved data is then permuted in a subsequent permutation operation. A matrix transpose is one example of block interleaving that could be applied between permutation operations.

The present technology relates to a data processing device and a data processing method, which are capable of securing excellent communication quality in data transmission using an LDPC code. In group-wise interleave, an LDPC code in which a code length N is 16200 bits and an encoding rate r is 6/15, 8/15, or 10/15 is interleaved in units of bit groups of 360 bits. In group-wise deinterleave, a sequence of the LDPC code that has undergone the group-wise interleave is restored to an original sequence. For example, the present technology can be applied to a technique of performing data transmission using an LDPC code.
