  • Mega-frame initialization packet generation and synchronous re-generation with bit rate adaptation for single frequency networks with multiple modulation schemes
    Patent number: 7983303
    Abstract: A system and processes create a Mega-frame Initialization Packet such that remote MIP inserters can regenerate Transport Stream bit rate and MIPs for Single Frequency Networks with modulation schemes different from an incoming stream in a totally deterministic way. This process guarantees that all MIP re-generators having the same signal at the input and having the same modulation scheme generate exactly the same stream (bit exact) even in multiple locations.

  • Deterministic program clock reference re-stamping for synchronous bit rate adaptation based on mega-frame initialization packet
    Patent number: 7924886
    Abstract: A system and processes create a transport stream carrying several encapsulated contents, watermarks, and other ancillary data. The transport stream is re-multiplexed while keeping synchronous and deterministic operation. Synchronous deterministic operation allow each derived transport stream to be broadcasted in Single Frequency Networks, as all re-multiplexers have the same signal at the input and selecting the same content generates exactly the same stream in multiple locations.
