Disclosed are a communication technique which merges, with IoT technology, a 5G communication system for supporting a data transmission rate higher than that of a 4G system, and a system therefor. The present disclosure can be applied to intelligent services (for example, smart homes, smart buildings, smart cities, smart cars or connected cars, healthcare, digital education, retail, security- and safety-related services, and the like) on the basis of 5G communication technology and IoT-related technology. A method for a terminal of a communication system may comprise the steps of: receiving, from a base station, information indicating LBRM; identifying a parameter related to the maximum number of layers for one transport block; identifying the maximum number of layers for the one transport block on the basis of the parameter; identifying a transport block size to which the LBRM is applied, on the basis of the determined maximum number of layers; and transmitting or receiving data to or from the base station on the basis of the transport block size.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A base station may configure an outer coded block which a user equipment (UE) may implement to recover an unsuccessfully decoded transmission. The base station may send, to the UE, downlink control information (DCI) indicating an outer coding scheme for the group of data blocks (e.g., a first data block and a second data block). The UE may monitor for the data blocks and the outer coded block. The UE may decode the data blocks based on the outer coded block and the outer coding scheme. In some examples, the outer code block may be made up of a combination of the first and second data blocks. The UE may use the combination of the outer coded block and one of the data blocks to decode an unsuccessfully decode data block.

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 by group-wise interleaving a plurality of bit groups configuring the parity bits based on a group-wise interleaving pattern comprising 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.

A digital television (DTV) receiving system includes an information detector, a resampler, a timing recovery unit, and a carrier recovery unit. The information detector detects a known data sequence which is periodically inserted in a digital television (DTV) signal received from a DTV transmitting system. The resampler resamples the DTV signal at a predetermined resampling rate. The timing recovery unit performs timing recovery on the DTV signal by detecting a timing error from the resampled DTV signal using the detected known data sequence. The carrier recovery unit performs carrier recovery on the resampled DTV signal by estimating a frequency offset value of the resampled DTV signal using the detected known data sequence.

An error correction encoding device includes an encoding unit to generate soft decision error correction frame information including a bit array of m rows and N columns obtained by combining first bit string group information and second bit string group information, the first bit string group information including a bit array of m rows and N1 columns in which it is enabled to perform pulse amplitude modulation of a combination of bit values of each column of the first bit string group information into a modulation symbol by using a first symbol mapping rule, the second bit string group information including a bit array of m rows and N2 columns in which it is enabled to perform pulse amplitude modulation of a combination of bit values of each column of the second bit string group information into a modulation symbol by using a second symbol mapping rule.
