Abstract
A digital modulator which inputs a data stream to convert to a channel bit stream. The multiplexed data block is generated by multiplexing dummy data to any position within each data block cut out of the data stream one by one. The first Reed-Solomon code is generated by Reed-Solomon-encoding the multiplexed data block as an information part. A plurality of second Reed-Solomon codes are generated by adding a plurality of Reed-Solomon codes for scrambling each of which has identification data showing its scrambling pattern in the same position as that of the dummy data, and the code length of information part and parity part is the same as the first Reed-Solomon code. The second Reed-Solomon code in which the characteristics becomes desirable after modulation among the plurality of the second Reed-Solomon codes is set for output.
