Abstract
In a method of decoding data symbols into codewords, reliability information of the data symbols is provided. A first group of symbols from a first set of groups of symbols is selected, wherein the first set of groups of symbols is defined by at least a first parity-check of a parity-check matrix of a linear block code which has been used to encode the data symbols. The selection is based on the reliability information. A second group of symbols from a second set of groups of symbols is selected, wherein the second set of groups of symbols is defined by at least a second parity-check of the parity-check matrix. The selection is based on the selected first group of symbols and the reliability information. At least a part of the codeword is composed on the basis of the first group of symbols and the second group of symbols.
