Abstract
A method and apparatus deinterleave data blocks each transmitted as a sequence of data groups including N bits of data from a single bit position of N words. A first data block is received (1004) and stored (1006) in a memory (402) in a manner that defines memory locations for each of the N words, thereby deinterleaving the first data block. A next data block is received by processing (1008) at least a portion of the N words stored previously in the memory, thereby providing free memory locations, and thereafter receiving (1012) new data including at least a portion of a next data group of the next data block. The new data is stored (1014) in at least a portion of the free memory locations, and processing continues until the next data block has been received and stored in entirety. The memory locations are then redefined (1018) for the N words, thereby deinterleaving the next data block.
