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 4/15. 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 4096-symbol mapping.

Consistent with a further aspect of the present disclosure, previously encoded data is stored in a memory, and an encoder accesses both input data and previously encoded data to generate new encoded data or a new codeword. Each codeword is stored in a row of the memory, and with each newly generated codeword, each previously stored code word is shifted to an adjacent row of the memory. In one example, the memory is delineated as a plurality of blocks including rows and columns of bits. When generating a new code word, randomly selected columns of bits in the memory are read from randomly selected blocks of the memory and supplied to the encoder. In this manner the number of times the memory is access is reduced and power consumption is reduced.

A parity interleaving apparatus and method for variable length signaling information are disclosed. A parity interleaving apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a processor configured to generate a parity bit string for parity puncturing by segmenting parity bits of an LDPC codeword whose length is 16200 and whose code rate is 3/15, into a plurality of groups, and group-wise interleaving the groups using an order of group-wise interleaving; and memory configured to provide the parity bit string for parity puncturing to a parity puncturing unit.

A transmitting apparatus is disclosed. The transmitting apparatus includes an encoder to perform channel encoding with respect to bits and generate a codeword, an interleaver to interleave the codeword, and a modulator to map the interleaved codeword onto a non-uniform constellation according to a modulation scheme, and the constellation may include constellation points defined based on various tables according to the modulation scheme.

A transmitting apparatus is provided. The transmitting apparatus includes: an encoder configured to generate a low density parity check (LDPC) codeword by LDPC encoding based on a parity check matrix; an interleaver configured to interleave the LDPC codeword; and a modulator configured to map the interleaved LDPC codeword onto a modulation symbol, wherein the modulator is further configured to map a bit included in a predetermined bit group from among a plurality of bit groups constituting the LDPC codeword onto a predetermined bit of the modulation symbol.

Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed for interleaving coded bits. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) may generate a plurality of polar encoded bits using polar encoding. The WTRU may divide the plurality of polar encoded bits into sub-blocks of equal size in a sequential manner. The WTRU may apply sub-block wise interleaving to the sub-blocks using an interleaver pattern. The sub-blocks associated with a subset of the sub-blocks may be interleaved, and sub-blocks associated with another subset of the sub-blocks may not be interleaved. The sub-block wise interleaving may include applying interleaving across the sub-blocks without interleaving bits associated with each of the sub-blocks. The WTRU may concatenate bits from each of the interleaved sub-blocks to generate interleaved bits, and store the interleaved bits associated with the interleaved sub-blocks in a circular buffer. The WTRU may select a plurality of bits for transmission from the interleaved bits.

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.

A transmitter is provided. The transmitter includes: a Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) encoder configured to encode input bits to generate an LDPC codeword including the input bits and parity bits to be transmitted in a current frame; a parity permutator configured to perform parity-permutation by interleaving the parity bits and group-wise interleaving a plurality of bit groups configuring the interleaved parity bits based on a group-wise interleaving pattern including a first pattern and a second pattern; a puncturer configured to puncture some of the parity-permutated parity bits; and an additional parity generator configured to select at least some of the punctured parity bits to generate additional parity bits to be transmitted in a previous frame of the current frame, based on the first pattern and the second pattern, wherein the first pattern determines parity bits to remain after the puncturing and then to be transmitted in the current frame.

A receiver detects a received signal, transmitted by a transmitter to carry payload data as Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed (OFDM) symbols in divided frames, each frame including a preamble including plural bootstrap OFDM symbols. A detector circuit detects, from the bootstrap OFDM symbols, a synchronization timing for converting a useful part of the bootstrap OFDM symbols into the frequency domain. A bootstrap processor detects an estimate of the channel transfer function from a first OFDM symbol, and a demodulator circuit recovers the signaling data from the bootstrap OFDM symbols using the estimate. The bootstrap processor includes an up-sampler configured to receive the bootstrap OFDM symbols, to form an up-sampled frequency domain version of the bootstrap OFDM symbol, and an output processor configured to identify a peak correlation result, to determine frequency offset of the received signal from a relative position of the peak correlation result in the frequency domain.
