ABSTRACT:
The present invention makes it possible to achieve restoration of decoding processing more intricately in comparison with commonly-used techniques. The present invention increases post-restoration data reliability and is applicable to real-time decoding processing. A variable length code converter of the present invention provides an abnormal code detection signal when a bit-string subjected to conversion corresponds to none of variable length codes that belong in predetermined coding systems. At this time, a controller provides an error signal, and according to the error signal a bit-string is continuously output from a memory which stores bit-strings to be decoded. When the controller detects a header indicative of data partition from an output bit-string of the memory, it cancels the error signal. As a result, bit-string decoding resumes after the detected header.
