Patent number: 8112780Abstract: A digital broadcast receiving apparatus has two systems as a receiving system: a first receiving demodulation section including a first tuner 2 and the like; and a second receiving demodulation section including a second tuner 5 and the like. A controller 19 establishes either a first receiving mode or second receiving mode. In the first receiving mode, both the receiving systems receive the broadcasting waves of the same station to be viewed according to the signals from a vehicle speed detecting section 15 and receiving level detecting sections 16 and 17. In the second receiving mode, one of the two receiving systems receives the broadcasting wave of the station to be viewed, and the other of them receives the broadcasting wave of another station.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2005Date of Patent: February 7, 2012Assignee: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Kenichi Taura, Masayuki Ishida, Nobuyoshi Okumura, Tadatoshi Ohkubo

Patent number: 7369746Abstract: Data separating means extracts intra-frame or intra-field encoded blocks from an intra-frame or intra-field encoded, and inter-frame or inter-field encoded digital video signal, and a digital audio signal contained in an input bit stream. Error correction code appending means appends error correction codes to the extracted intra-encoded blocks. Recording means records the data having the error correction code appended, in special replay data recording areas predefined on the magnetic recording tape. During fast replay or slow replay, error correction is achieved even for the replay signal with a low output level and a poor symbol rate.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2001Date of Patent: May 6, 2008Assignee: Mitsubishi Denki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Tomohiro Ueda, Taketoshi Hibi, Junko Ishimoto, Masako Asamura, Nobuyoshi Okumura, Sadayuki Inoue, Tohru Inoue, Ken Onishi

Publication number: 20070060082Abstract: A receiving apparatus 10 receives a broadcasting wave to which service information indicating at least a channel number, a transmission broadcasting station name, and a broadcast target area are added. A control CPU 20 controls a tuner 11 so as to determine whether the broadcasting wave can be received in a predetermined region while changing the channel number, extracts the service information added to the broadcasting wave which is determined to be able to be received thereby, and registers the service information, as preset information, into one preset group in a memory 19. The control CPU then controls the tuner according to the preset information registered into the preset group so as to select the broadcasting wave.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 6, 2005Publication date: March 15, 2007Inventors: Nobuyoshi Okumura, Masayuki Ishida, Kenichi Taura, Tadatoshi Ohkubo
