Transmission method, reception method, transmission device and reception device

A reception method, executed by a reception apparatus, the reception method comprising:

• acquiring information indicating a selected coding scheme which is used for generating an encoded sequence from an information sequence, the encoded sequence being carried in a received signal, the selected coding scheme being selected from a predetermined coding scheme set, the predetermined coding scheme set including two or more coding schemes having different code lengths for each of a plurality of coding rates;
• demodulating a received signal, to obtain demodulated values corresponding to the encoded sequence, based on a phase changing method that is applied to at least one of first modulated symbols and second modulated symbols generated from the encoded sequence;
• and
• decoding the demodulated values according to a decoding scheme corresponding to the selected coding scheme to obtain a received data,
• wherein
• the predetermined coding scheme set includes at least a first coding scheme and second coding scheme,
• when the information indicates that the selected coding scheme is the first coding scheme, the encoded sequence is generated by generating a first codeword of a first length as the encoded sequence by using a first bit sequence inputted as the information sequence according to a first parity check matrix, and
• when the information indicates that the selected coding scheme is the second coding scheme, the encoded sequence is generated by generating a second codeword of a second length longer than the first length by using a second bit sequence inputted as the information sequence according to a second parity check matrix different from the first parity check matrix, and discarding a part of parity bits of the second codeword to generate a third codeword of the first length.

• a modulator that, in operation, modulates the encoded sequence to obtain data symbols;
• and
• a transmitter that transmits a transmission frame that carries the data symbols,
• wherein
• the predetermined coding scheme set includes at least a first coding scheme and a second coding scheme,
• when the first coding scheme is selected, the coding includes generating a first codeword of a first length as the encoded sequence by using a first bit sequence inputted as the information sequence according to a first parity check matrix, and
• when the second coding scheme is selected, the coding includes generating a second codeword of a second length longer than the first length by using a second bit sequence inputted as the information sequence according to a second parity check matrix different from the first parity check matrix, and discarding a part of parity bits of the second codeword to generate a third codeword of the first length.
