Abstract
Matching a rate of data bits, in a matrix of data bits interleaved by a predetermined interleaving process, to a desired rate by deletion of redundant data bits or repetition of data bits derived from the matrix. It includes steps of determining in a non-interleaved matrix of the data bits a pattern of bits to be deleted or repeated to provide the desired data rate, decoding an address of each bit in said pattern in a manner inverse to the interleaving process to product a respective address of the bit in the matrix of interleaved data bits, and deleting or repeating the respective bit in the interleaved data bits in dependence upon the respective address. The address decoding is performed in the same manner as a coding of addresses for producing the interleaved data bits from the non-interleaved matrix of the data bits.
