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 3/15. 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.

Methods, a wireless device (110) and a radio network node (120) for managing a control block are disclosed. An extended Temporary Flow Identifier, eTFI, is assigned to the wireless device (110) by the radio network node (120). The radio network node (120) constructs the control information. The radio network node (120) performs a bit-wise modulo two addition with a control block and a combination of the eTFI and a pre-determined bit pattern to obtain a modified control block. The radio network node (120) adds channel coding redundancy. The radio network node (120) maps the modified control block onto physical resources. The radio network node (120) sends the modified control block to the wireless device (110). The wireless device (110) decodes the received modified control block removing the channel coding redundancy, performs a bit-wise modulo two addition between the modified control block and a combination of the eTFI and a pre-determined bit pattern to obtain a control block. The wireless device (110) decodes the control block using FIRE-decoding to obtain the control information. The wireless device (110) determines it is the intended recipient of the control information if the TFI information therein matches its assigned TFI. Corresponding computer programs and carriers therefor are also disclosed.

A wireless communication device, a wireless communication method, and a program capable of contributing to improvement of wireless communication technology related to IDMA. The wireless communication device includes: a wireless communication unit that performs wireless communication using interleave division multiple access (IDMA) with another wireless communication device; and a controller that controls an interleave length in an interleave process for IDMA by the wireless communication unit.

Exemplary embodiments for providing multi-bit error correction based on a BCH code are provided. In one such embodiment, the following operations are repeatedly performed, including shifting each bit of the BCH code rightward by 1 bit while filling the bit vacated due to the rightward shifting in the BCH code with 0, calculating syndrome values corresponding to the shifting of the BCH code, and determining a first error number in the BCH code under the shifting based on the syndrome values corresponding to the shifting of the BCH code. In the case where the first error number is not equal to 0, modified syndrome values are calculated corresponding to the shifting of the BCH code. The modified syndrome values are those corresponding to the case that the current rightmost bit of the BCH code under the shifting is changed to the inverse value. Additional operations are performed as described herein.
