Abstract: A frequency and data synchronization control system through the 8VSB SFN DTx modulation prevents the deterioration of the digitally broadcasted receiving sensitivity caused by a discrepancy of the frequency or data between the receiver of the digital broadcasting signal and the distributed translator or between distributed translators.

Abstract: A digital television translator includes a digital television receiver for receiving a first digital television signal at a first frequency and generating a digital transport stream from the first digital television signal. The digital transport stream can include original Program and System Information (PSIP) data having RX channel data that is indicative of the first frequency, the first major channel number, and/or the first minor channel number. The digital television translator also includes a PSIP update module for updating the original PSIP data in the digital transport stream by replacing the RX channel data with TX channel data. The TX data is indicative of a second frequency, a second major channel number, and/or a second minor channel number.
