The corresponding constellation diagram is a non-uniform 16-QAM:
In step S14, for example, an LDPC codeword (an LDPC codeword after second bit interleaving) having a code length of 16200 bits is divided into a first part and a second part, wherein the length of the first part is 15840 bits and the length of the second part is 360 bits, and the two parts are written into a storage space in a column order and are read from the storage space in a row order. Where QPSK constellation mapping is used, the first part has 7920 bits in each column and has two columns in total, and the second part has 180 bits in each column and has two columns in total. Where a non-uniform 16-QAM is used, the first part has 3960 bits in each column and has four columns in total, and the second part has 90 bits in each column and has four columns in total. An LDPC codeword (an LDPC codeword after second bit interleaving) having a code length of 64800 bits only has a first part, i.e. the length of the first part is 64800 bits and the length of the second part is 0 bits, and the two parts are written in a storage space in a column order and are read from the storage space in a row order. Where a non-uniform 16-QAM is used, there are 16200 bits in each column and there are four columns in total.
Afterwards, for the above-mentioned bit stream data (b0, b1, . . . , bN-1) after bit interleaving, in accordance with the constellation diagram, where the QPSK is used, a decimal number corresponding to every two binary bit sequences is mapped to a certain constellation point, and where a non-uniform 16-QAM is used, a decimal number corresponding to every four binary bit sequences is mapped to a certain constellation point, so that a symbol stream is obtained (each complex symbol corresponding to a constellation point). Taking a non-uniform 16-QAM corresponding to a code length of 64800 bits and a code rate of 7/15 as an example, four input bits ‘0110’ correspond to a decimal number of 6, and then corresponds to a constellation point −0.5072+1.1980i in the constellation diagram, and the constellation point is displayed on a real number axis and a virtual number axis as −0.5072 on the real number axis and 1.1980 on the virtual number axis.
In the embodiment, the LDPC codeword is obtained by performing specific LDPC coding on the bit stream after signal source coding, wherein the specific LDPC coding can be implemented by the prior art.
No limit to give an example, choose a specific LDPC codeword from six LDPC codewords with subblock size of L×L (L=360) and LDPC code matrices tables given as below:
For example, the encoding procedures for the LDPC codewords described by LDPC code matrices tables 1 to 3 are illustrated as below.

The steps of coding are:
1) Initializing λi=si, i=0, 1, . . . , K−1. pj=0, j=0, 1, . . . , M1+M2−1
2) For information bits λ0, parity bits taking the first row of numbers in the code table as addresses are accumulated, taking table 2, the code table with a code rate of 7/15 and a code length of 64800 as an example:
460 792 1007 4580 11452 13130 26882 27020 32439
p460=p460⊕λ0, p792=p792⊕λ0, p1007=p1007⊕λ0, p4580=p4580⊕λ0, p11452=p11452⊕λ0, p13130=p13130⊕λ0, p26882=p26882⊕λ0, p27020=p27020 ⊕λ0, p32439=p32439⊕λ0
3) For the next L−1 information bits, (L=360), λm, m=1, 2, . . . , L−1, each of the information bits is respectively accumulated with parity bits taking the following y as addresses:
where x refers to parity bit addresses related to λ0, taking table 2 as an example, x is the first row of numbers in the code table, 460 792 1007 4580 11452 13130 26882 27020 32439.
Moreover,
Taking codewords of table 2 as an example,
4) For the Lth information bit λL, parity bits are accumulated according to the second row of numerical addresses in the code table. Similarly, for the next L−1 information bits, parity bits are continuously accumulated according to a formula in step 3), and at this time, x of the formula in step 3 is namely the second row of numbers in the code table.
5) Similarly, for the 2Lth, the 3Lth, the 4Lth, . . . , the iLth information bit, the parity bits are accumulated according to addresses of the 3rd, 4th, 5th, . . . , (i+1)Lth row in the code table respectively, and for L−1 information bits following the information bits, the parity bits are accumulated according to the formula in step 3) respectively. It should be noted that at this time, x of the formula of step 3 correspond to the row of the code table corresponding to the current iLth information bit, for example, the address of x corresponding to the L−1th bit following the iLth information bit is the (i+1)th row of the code table when the formula of step 3) is used.
