Abstract
In one aspect of the present invention, a coding part of a transmitter side codes N series of input data into N+1 series of transmission data so that each of N+1 series of transmission data have frames and have the same transmission rates as those of the input data. For example, a bit transfer unit comprised in the coding part moves i-th bits of series i to the additional series N+1 where i=1 to N and a complement bit insertion unit inserts complements of an (N+1)-th bit of series 1 and (j-1)-th bits of series j into a first bit position of series 1 and j-th bit positions of series j, respectively, wherein J=2 to N. A frame signal insertion unit units alternate frame signal into the series N+1. BSI is secured by this simple construction.
