Apparatuses and methods for transmitting and receiving uncompressed AV data

An apparatus for receiving uncompressed audio or video (AV) data, the apparatus comprising:

• a radio frequency (RF) processing unit which receives, through a communication channel, the uncompressed AV data comprising pixels including bits which were classified into at least two groups of bits according to a significance of the bits, wherein each of the at least two groups has a different coding rate;
• a decoding unit which performs different error correction decoding on each of the at least two groups using the coding rate;
• and
• a bit combination unit which combines the at least two groups on which the error correction decoding was performed and generates decoded, uncompressed AV data.

A method of transmitting uncompressed audio or video (AV) data, the method comprising:

• classifying bits of each pixel included in the uncompressed AV data into at least two groups of bits according to a significance of the bits;
• performing error correction encoding on each of the at least two groups using a different coding rate;
• and
• transmitting the encoded, uncompressed AV data, which includes the pixels on which the error-correction encoding was performed, using a communication channel.

A method receiving uncompressed audio or video (AV) data, the method comprising:

• receiving, through a communication channel, the uncompressed AV data comprised of pixels which includes bits that were classified into at least two groups of bits according to a significance of the bits and to each group of which a different coding rate was applied;
• performing different error correction decoding on each of the at least two groups using the different coding rate;
• and
• combining the at least two groups on which the error correction decoding was performed and generating decoded, uncompressed AV data.
