Abstract
The present technology relates to a transmission device, a transmission method, a reception device, and a reception method for securing good communication quality in data transmission using an LDPC code. The LDPC coding is performed on the basis of the parity check matrix of the LDPC code with the code length N of 17280 bits and the coding rate r of 5/16, 6/16, or 7/16. The parity check matrix includes an A matrix of M1 rows and K columns expressed by a predetermined value M1 and an information length K=N×r of the LDPC code, a B matrix of M1 rows and M1 columns having a step structure, a Z matrix being a zero matrix of M1 rows and N−K−M1 columns, a C matrix of N−K−M1 rows and K+M1 columns, and a D matrix being an identity matrix of N−K−M1 rows and N−K−M1 columns. The A matrix and the C matrix are represented by a parity check matrix initial value table, and the parity check matrix initial value table is a table representing positions of elements of 1 of the A matrix and the C matrix for every 360 columns. The present technology can be applied to, for example, data transmission using an LDPC code.
