Abstract
A system implemented for example in the form of an SoC comprises a first demodulator for generating a first data stream to be decoded, and a second demodulator for generating a second data stream to be decoded, and a block decoder. The block decoder comprises an input memory for storing blocks of data from the first data stream and blocks of data from the second data stream, and a block decoding unit for processing, from the input memory, the blocks of data from the first and second data streams.
