Abstract
A receiving apparatus and a receiving method translates information of reception data, received by receiving means into a soft decision symbol with data translating means, translates a replacement information into the specific soft decision symbol which indicates that information has disappeared due to replacement to create first disappeared-information added data, decodes this through de-interleaving means and decoding means, and locates disappeared information a the replaced position without a translation table of the replaced position and/or an arithmetic circuit. In this way, disappearance treatment of the received data can be performed with a simple circuit configuration, and the resulting first disappearance-information added data can be decoded using known techniques.
