  • Publication number: 20070092027
    Abstract: A digital broadcasting system and method, where the digital broadcasting system includes: a transmission stream generator multiplexing a normal stream and a turbo stream to generate a dual transmission stream; a transmitter inserting an supplementary reference signal (SRS) into the dual transmission stream, processing the turbo stream to reconstitute the dual transmission stream, and outputting the reconstituted dual transmission stream; and a receiver receiving the reconstituted dual transmission stream, separately turbo decoding the turbo stream, inserting the turbo decode turbo stream into the dual transmission stream, and decoding the dual transmission stream into which the turbo decoded turbo stream has been inserted, to restore normal stream data and turbo stream data. Thus, reception sensitivity of a digital broadcasting signal can be efficiently improved.

  • Publication number: 20070092028
    Abstract: An outer encoder includes a bit detector that receives a turbo stream provided with a parity insertion region and that detects data bits from the turbo stream, an encoder that convolution-encodes the detected data bits, and a bit inserter that inserts an encoded value outputted from the encoder into the parity insertion region in the turbo stream.

  • Publication number: 20070092031
    Abstract: A system for transmitting a digital broadcasting signal includes a supplementary reference signal (SRS) inserter receiving a dual transport stream in which a normal stream and a turbo stream are multiplexed, and inserting an SRS into a stuffing region provided in the dual transport stream, a Reed-Solomon encoder encoding the dual transport stream having the SRS inserted therein, an interleaver interleaving the encoded dual transport stream, a turbo processor detecting and encoding the turbo stream from the interleaved dual transport stream, stuffing the dual transport stream with the encoded turbo stream, and compensating for a parity corresponding to the encoded turbo stream, and a trellis/parity corrector performing a trellis encoding of the dual transport stream processed by the turbo processor, which can robustly process a turbo stream included in the dual transport stream and easily confirm the channel state between a transmitter side and a receiver side.

  • Publication number: 20070092029
    Abstract: An apparatus to generate a dual transport stream including a duplicator that receives a turbo stream and that provides a parity insertion region for the turbo stream, and a multiplexer that receives a normal stream and that multiplexes the turbo stream processed by the duplicator and the normal stream to generate the dual transport stream. The duplicator provides the parity insertion region using a 1/2-rate conversion method or 1/4-rate conversion method. Only the turbo stream is detected prior to the transmission of the dual transport stream, and the parity is inserted into the parity insertion region so that the turbo stream can be robustly processed.

  • Publication number: 20070091929
    Abstract: An apparatus and method to generate a dual transport stream. The apparatus includes an eraser encoder to receive a turbo stream and to eraser-encode the turbo stream, a duplicator to provide a parity insertion region for the eraser-encoded turbo stream, and a multiplexer to receive a normal stream and to multiplex the turbo stream processed by the duplicator and the normal stream to generate the dual transport stream. The duplicator provides the parity insertion region using a ½-rate conversion method or ¼-rate conversion method. Only the turbo stream is detected prior to the transmission of the dual transport stream, and the parity is inserted into the parity insertion region, so that the turbo stream can be robustly processed.

  • Publication number: 20060269012
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a Vestigial Side Band (VSB) Digital Television (DTV) in agreement with the DTV standards (A/53) of the Advanced Television System Committee (ATSC), and to a method thereof. More particularly, it provides 4-VSB DTV transceiver that improves reception performance of a receiver by transmitting and receiving dual streams formed of normal data and robust data without increasing average power, regardless of a mixing rate of the normal and robust data. The 4-VSB DTV transceiver of the present research includes an encoding unit for encoding the robust data to be mapped to one of two groups having 4 levels {?5, ?3, 1, 7} and {?7, ?1, 3, 5}.

  • Publication number: 20060181229
    Abstract: A deflection yoke for a cathode ray tube improves assembly and productivity and enables effective control of magnetic field corrections during device processing. The deflection yoke includes a horizontal deflection coil located next to the outer circumference of a funnel to generate a horizontal magnetic field, and a vertical deflection coil installed at the outer circumference of the funnel to generate a vertical deflection magnetic field. The vertical deflection coil is insulated from the horizontal deflection coil. A ferrite core is located close to the vertical deflection coil to reduce the loss in the magnetic force generated from the horizontal and vertical deflection coils, and to enhance their magnetic efficiency. A correction unit is spaced apart from the horizontal deflection coil by a predetermined distance to correct a geometric distortion of the vertical and the horizontal deflection magnetic fields that is generated due to the vertical and horizontal deflection coils.
