Abstract
Apparatus and associated method for improving the radio link performance of a radio communication system, such as a cellular communication system. Multi-stage encoding and interleaving of the data bits of a digital information signal is performed at a single logical device, such as a radio base station. By performing two stages of interleaving over the same number of information frames of the data bits, only a single buffering stage is required to perform such multi-stage interleaving.
