Abstract
A method of generating and allocating codewords includes allocating one of two selectable codewords b and b as codeword “b” when a preceding codeword “a” and a following codeword “b” form a code stream X, in which the codewords b and b have opposite INV values which are parameters indicating whether the number of '1s' contained in a codeword is an odd number or an even number. When the code stream of the preceding codeword “a” and the following codeword b is X , and when the code stream of the preceding codeword “a” and the following codeword b is X , the codewords are allocated such that the INV values of X and X are maintained to be opposite when the preceding codeword “a” or the following codeword b (b ) (b or b ) should be replaced by another codeword in compliance with a predetermined boundary condition given between codewords. The codewords are allocated so that a DC suppression capability of the code stream can be maintained.
