Abstract

A method and apparatus for effectively controlling data input to a turbo decoder for decoding forward packet data traffic in a 1xEV-DV mobile station (MS) are disclosed. After received code symbols are stored in one of several memories and read in deinterleaving order, read addresses and chip select signals are generated for the memories based on encoder packet size in synchronization to a decoder clock signal. The decoding starts by inputting a predetermined number of code symbols to the turbo decoder in an appropriate order. The decoder input apparatus reads demodulated forward packet data from decoder input buffers in an appropriate order using the read addresses and chip select signals to generate turbo decoder input data in an appropriate form. Thus, a small-size, low-cost, low-power consumption MS is achieved by processing channel-interleaved data at high speed and with reduced process delay and providing them to a decoder.
