Abstract
An information processing device is provided that includes a signal receiving portion, an absolute value conversion portion, and an input data decoding portion. The signal receiving portion receives a signal that is encoded such that mutually distinct first and second bit values are respectively expressed by pluralities of mutually distinct first amplitude values and second amplitude values, the first and second bit values also being encoded such that the same amplitude value does not occur twice in succession and such that the polarities of the amplitude values are inverted with each cycle. The absolute value conversion portion converts into absolute values the amplitude values of the signal that has been received by the signal receiving portion. The input data decoding portion decodes the first and second bit values based on the amplitude values in the signal that have been converted into absolute values by the absolute value conversion portion.
