Transmission device and method for transmitting punctured data messages having common input bits and reception device and method for reassembling an encoded data message based on punctured data messages

A reception device for reassembling an encoded data message, the device comprising:

• a receiver configured to receive punctured data messages during two or more consecutive time slots, the punctured data messages including a first punctured data message and a second punctured data message alternately received during the consecutive time slots;
• and
• a re-assembler configured to reassemble the encoded data message based on the punctured data messages;
• wherein the first punctured data message is the encoded data message punctured with a first puncture indices series, wherein the second punctured data message is the encoded data message punctured with a second puncture indices series that is complementary to the first puncture indices series, and wherein each of the punctured data messages has a first code rate that is a-higher than a second code rate of the encoded data message.

A reception method for reassembling an encoded data message, the method comprising:

• receiving punctured data messages during two or more consecutive time slots, the punctured data messages including a first punctured data message and a second punctured data message alternately received during the consecutive time slots;
• and
• reassembling the encoded data message based on the punctured data messages;
• wherein the first punctured data message is the encoded data message punctured with a first puncture indices series, wherein the second punctured data message is the encoded data message punctured with a second puncture indices series that is complementary to the first puncture indices series, and wherein each of the punctured data messages has a first code rate that is a-higher than a second code rate of the encoded data message.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having computer readable program code embodied therewith, the computer readable program code, executable by at least one processor of a computer to perform a reception method for reassembling an encoded data message, the method comprising:

• receiving punctured data messages during two or more consecutive time slots, the punctured data messages including a first punctured data message and a second punctured data message alternately received during the consecutive time slots;
• and
• reassembling the encoded data message based on the punctured data messages;
• wherein the first punctured data message is the encoded data message punctured with a first puncture indices series, wherein the second punctured data message is the encoded data message punctured with a second puncture indices series that is complementary to the first puncture indices series, and wherein each of the punctured data messages has a first code rate that is a higher than a second code rate of the encoded data message.
