A method and apparatus for decoding inner and/or outer codes in a mobile communication system. The inner and/or outer codes are decoded at low power and high speed. An inner decoder performs channel decoding and cyclic redundancy checking (CRC) on symbols received through a wireless network. An outer decoder performs outer coding on the received symbols. An erasure symbol identifier outputs information of erasure symbols in which a reception error has occurred. The reception error is determined from a result of the CRC on the received symbols. A controller counts the number of received symbols and the number of erasure symbols, and stops an operation of at least one of the inner and outer decoders when at least one of the number of received symbols and the number of erasure symbols is equal to a preset reference value.

Method and apparatus for decoding inner and outer codes in a mobile communication system

A method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving a broadcast service in a mobile communication system which outer-codes frames for a plurality of broadcast services and Time Domain Multiplex (TDM)-transmits the outer-coded frames. A transmitter transmits a broadcast parameter message comprising information indicating a specific sub-buffer in which respective broadcast services are stored. A receiver for receiving the broadcast parameter message from the transmitter, and maps the sub-buffer to a corresponding sub-block mask based on the broadcast parameter message. The transmitter TDM-transmits the frames for the plurality of broadcast services per sub-block. The receiver selectively receives frames for a desired broadcast service using the sub-block mask and decodes the selectively received frames.
