Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a decoder capable of improving accuracy of error correction. A demodulating sectiondemodulates received data Y and creates soft decision data. An error correction processing sectionperforms an error correction processing in accordance with a predetermined algorithm determined with the transmission side beforehand to create a bit sequence of data. A CRC sectionperforms a CRC test. A soft decision data correction sectionis controlled in such a manner that in the event that no error is decided, the bit sequence of data is output in form of decoding data D, and in the event that an error is decided, a data correction control circuitcorrects soft decision data of lowest reliability from a memoryto soft decision dataof higher reliability.
