Abstract:
An encoding apparatus which combines an RLL (run length limited) code word and an error correction code word, with an interleaving technique when encoding, including: an error correction encoding section; an interleaving section; and an RLL encoding section, wherein, if an address i (i is an integer satisfying relations 0 0iThis interleaves symbols of each error correction code word to both high and low bytes of RLL code words to reduce decoded bit error rate.
