LDPC Bit Interleaver Permutation for 4096-Symbol Burst Errors
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Bit-Interleaved Coded Modulation (BICM) systems suffer from rapid performance degradation due to burst errors in digital broadcast channels, necessitating an optimized bit interleaver design for modulation order and error correction code parameters.
Innovation Solution
A bit interleaver is designed for an LDPC coder with a length of 64800 and code rate of 3/15, using a processor to generate interleaved codewords on a bit group basis, optimized for 4096-symbol mapping, which effectively distributes burst errors by employing a specific permutation order.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a bit-by-bit interleaver is used in BICM systems, then the system can provide high-level flexibility and bandwidth efficiency, but the system suffers from rapid performance degradation due to burst errors in digital broadcast channels
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the codeword into multiple bit groups (e.g., 180 bit groups of 360 bits each for a 64800-length codeword) and performs interleaving at the bit group level rather than individual bit level. This segmentation allows the system to maintain flexibility while effectively distributing burst errors across different bit groups, preventing concentrated error patterns that would degrade performance.
2Reliability
If the bit interleaver is optimized for specific modulation order and code rate parameters, then the system achieves excellent performance, but the device complexity increases due to parameter-specific design requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The patent employs parameter changes by defining specific interleaving patterns and permutation sequences tailored to particular modulation orders (e.g., 4096-QAM) and code rates (e.g., 3/15 for LDPC). The interleaver uses predetermined permutation orders and bit group configurations that are optimized for specific parameter combinations, achieving excellent performance while managing complexity through standardized parameter sets rather than fully adaptive designs.

AI summary
A bit-interleaved coded modulation (BICM) reception device and a BICM reception method are disclosed herein. The BICM reception device includes a demodulator, a bit deinterleaver, and a decoder. The demodulator performs demodulation corresponding to 4096-symbol mapping. The bit deinterleaver performs group-unit deinterleaving on interleaved values. The interleaved values are generated after the demodulation. The decoder restores information bits by LDPC-decoding deinterleaved values generated based on the group-unit deinterleaving. The deinterleaved values corresponds to a LDPC codeword having a length of 64800 and a code rate of 3/15.
