Patent 11063609 was granted and assigned to Panasonic on July, 2021 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
One coding scheme is selected from a plurality of coding schemes, an information sequence is encoded by using the selected coding scheme, and an obtained encoded sequence is modulated to obtain a modulated signal. The obtained modulated signal is subjected to a phase change and is transmitted. The plurality of coding schemes include at least a first coding scheme and a second coding scheme. The first coding scheme is a coding scheme with a first coding rate for forming a generated first codeword as a first encoded sequence by using a first parity check matrix. The second coding scheme is a coding scheme with a second coding rate obtained after puncturing processing, for generating a second encoded sequence by performing the puncturing processing on a generated second codeword by using a second parity check matrix different from the first parity check matrix. The number of bits of the first encoded sequence is equal to the number of bits of the second encoded sequence.
