Abstract:
A decoding apparatus and a decoding device are provided to obtain the optimum decoding performance in a low code rate by performing the decoding by using a variable correction value every iteration decoding in a check node update process. An initial normalizing constant and a normalizing constant correction value are set up(301). A check node is initially updated by using an initial normalizing constant(302). When updating the check node again, the update is performed by using the variable correction value adding the normalizing constant correction value to the initial normalizing constant(303). The update is performed by adding the normalizing constant correction value to the variable correction value applied to the prior update every an additional update(304).

Abstract:
A timing synchronization method in an interactive satellite telecommunication system is provided to compensate for a time delay by using a time delay compensation value, when data is transmitted to a terminal in a coverage area. An interactive satellite telecommunication system based on TDMA(Time Division Multiplexing Access) includes a satellite(11), an outer gap filler(10), an inner gap filler(12), and a set top box(13). The satellite transmits Ku/Ka band signals to a ground terminal and receives the Ku/Ka band signal from the gap filler and the terminal. The inner gap filler converts the Ku/Ka band signal to an S band signal and delivers the converted signal to the set top box. The inner gap filler receives the S band signal from the set top box and converts the S band signal to the Ku/Ka band signal. The gap filler in a tunnel stores time delay values according to positions and compensates for a time delay by using the time delay compensation value, when data is transmitted from the satellite to the set top box. The set top box transmits and receives the Ku/Ka range signal with the satellite, and transmits and receives the S band signal with the gap filler.

A hierarchical channel adaptive packet scheduler in a satellite communication network and a method thereof are provided to maintain the amount of transmitted packets equally even though weather conditions of regions where each receiving device is positioned are different, and to support various service classes for each receiving device at the same time, thereby realizing optimized scheduling for different service classes. At least one multi-stage class queue(50) queues packets to be transmitted, while having different service levels of service classes. At least one regional queue(60) queues packets to be transmitted to each region having different weather conditions. A queue controller(70) transmits the packets stored in the regional queues and the class queues to receiving device sides according to previously determined packet scheduling policies.

Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for generating a soft bit metric and a M-array QAM(Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) receiving system using the same are provided to lower designing complexity by using Max-Log-Map algorithm when converting a symbol signal into bit information. An apparatus for generating a soft bit metric includes an analog/digital signal converting unit(51), a scaling unit(52), a positive integer converting unit(53), a sign determination unit(54), and a bit information converting unit(55). The analog/digital signal conversion unit(51) converts an analog symbol signal of a demodulated I(Inphase)-channel or Q (Quadrature)-channel into a digital signal. The scaling unit(52) scales the converted digital signal based on an interval determination reference value between symbols. The positive integer converting unit(53) calculates a positive integer of the scaled digital I or Q-channel symbol signal. The sign determination unit(54) determines a sign of the scaled digital I or Q-channel symbol signal. The bit information converting unit(55) converts the scaled digital I or Q-channel symbol signal into each soft bit metric information classified by bits based on the calculated positive integer and the determined sign value.
Abstract:
A decoding method for detecting a PLSC(Physical Layer Signaling Code) of a satellite broadcasting system frame is provided to improve reliability of PLSC decoding by performing (32,6) Reed-Muller decoding in parallel and reduce the quantity of calculations. A symbol vector is received, and a sum vector and a difference vector of a symbol pair are obtained from the received symbol vector. (32,6) Reed-Muller decoding using Hadamard matrix is performed on the sum vector and the difference vector to estimate a message bit of the sum vector and a message bit of the difference vector. The message bits are PLSC-encoded and modulated(403,404). A difference between the received symbol vector and a symbol according to the sum vector and a difference between the received symbol vector and a symbol according to the difference vector are calculated and compared to each other(405,406). When the difference according to the sum vector is smaller than the difference according to the difference vector, it is determined that Reed-Muller codeword is repeated. When the difference according to the sum vector is greater than the difference according to the difference vector, it is determined that Reed-Muller codeword is inverted.
