Abstract
Abstract A product code is generated by first encoding means for generating a first error correction code which is a first parity code added to a first code group having a predetermined number of consecutive information codes of a code sequence, and second encoding means for generating a second error correction code which is a second parity code added to a second code group having information codes each derived from a first group among a plurality of consecutive code groups of the code sequence. An error correction code having a high burst error correction capability can thus be realized without using an additional interleave circuit and other circuits.

Claim 8
Dependent Claim
55 words
A device according to claim 7, further comprising reception means for receiving said code sequence having said information words added with said first and second parity words from a transmission line, and supplying said code sequence to said first or second decoding means without changing the order of said information words of said code sequence.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
32 words
A device according to claim 7, wherein said information word is video information, and the information amount of said first word group corresponds to said video information of one horizontal scan line.

Claim 12
Dependent Claim
86 words
An error correction code decoding device, comprising: (a) first decoding means for decoding a first error correction code which is a first parity code added to a first code group having a predetermined number of consecutive information codes of a code sequence; and (b) second decoding means for decoding a second error correction code which is a second parity code added to a second code group having information codes each derived from a first group among a plurality of consecutive code groups of said code sequence.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
77 words
An error correction code encoding device or method in which a first correction code and a second correction code are added to incoming data, characterised in that if the incoming data is arranged as an array the first correction code is based on consecutive data items in a line through the array in a first direction, and the second correction code is based on non-consecutive data items in a line through the array in a second direction.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
36 words
A device or method according to claim 13 in which the second correction code is based on every n-th data item in a line through the array in the second direction, where n is an integer.
Claim 15
Dependent Claim
32 words
An error correction code decoding device or method suitable for decoding data which has been error correction code encoded by a device or a method according to claim 13 or claim 14.
