Abstract
Abstract In a method for transmitting interleaved data, when the respective data blocks to be transmitted are interleaved and augmented by the error correcting parity codes before being transmitted on the transmission channel, a prescribed number of dummy data are provided between the respective data blocks so that the data block and the neighboring data blocks are not in the interleaving relation. In this matter, data addition, correction and substitution can be made easily for each data block or a group of blocks without influencing the error correction parity codes of the remaining block data.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
108 words
A data block transmission method for interleaved data comprising the steps of: scrambling input data elements forming each data block in the temporal order thereof by an interleaving operation to form interleaved input data elements, dividing said interleaved input data elements into groups, each group being composed of a prescribed number of said data elements, generating error correction parity codes and affixing said error correction parity codes to a prescribed number of data elements for transmission on a transmission channel, and using a prescribed number of dummy data elements arrayed with the input data elements forming said data blocks for generating and affixing the error correction parity codes.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
108 words
A data block transmission method for interleaved data comprising the steps of: scrambling input data elements forming each data block in the temporal order thereof by an interleaving operation to form interleaved input data elements, dividing said interleaved input data elements into groups, each group being composed of a prescribed number of said data elements, generating error correction parity codes and affixing said error correction parity codes to a prescribed number of data elements for transmission on a transmission channel, and using a prescribed number of dummy data elements arrayed with the input data elements forming said data blocks for generating and affixing the error correction parity codes.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
43 words
The method according to claim 1, including the step of arraying said dummy data elements to compensate for the deficiency of the input data arrayed with said prescribed number of data elements for generating and affixing at least said error correction parity codes.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
19 words
The method according to claim 1, including the step of setting said dummy data to the "0" logic level.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
24 words
The method according to claim 1, including the step of arraying data elements at the leading portion of input data forming the data block.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
26 words
The method according to claim 1, including the step of arraying said dummy data elements at the tailing portion of input data forming the data block.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
28 words
The method according to claim 1, including the step of arraying said dummy data elements at the leading and tailing portions of input data forming the data block.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
133 words
A data transmission method comprising the steps of: dividing a plurality of input data elements forming a data block into groups, each group being composed of a prescribed number of data elements, arraying said prescribed number of input data elements two-dimensionally, generating error correction parity codes from said input data elements and affixing said error correction parity codes to the predetermined number of data elements of the two-dimensionally arrayed data, arraying said error correction parity codes in a direction different from the arraying direction of the input data elements, sequentially transmitting said input data elements along said different direction, and arranging dummy data elements with said input data elements to compensate for the deficiency of the input data elements arrayed in said different direction to generate and affix the error correction parity codes.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
133 words
A data transmission method comprising the steps of: dividing a plurality of input data elements forming a data block into groups, each group being composed of a prescribed number of data elements, arraying said prescribed number of input data elements two-dimensionally, generating error correction parity codes from said input data elements and affixing said error correction parity codes to the predetermined number of data elements of the two-dimensionally arrayed data, arraying said error correction parity codes in a direction different from the arraying direction of the input data elements, sequentially transmitting said input data elements along said different direction, and arranging dummy data elements with said input data elements to compensate for the deficiency of the input data elements arrayed in said different direction to generate and affix the error correction parity codes.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
19 words
The method according to claim 7, including the step of setting the dummy data to the "0" logic level.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
28 words
The method according to claim 7, including the step of arraying said dummy data elements at the leading portion of the input data elements forming the data block.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
28 words
The method according to claim 7, including the step of arraying said dummy data elements at the trailing portions of the input data elements forming the data block.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
29 words
The method according to claim 7, including the step of arraying said dummy data elements at the leading and trailing portions of input data elements forming the data block.
