  • Dual band digital broadcast receiver
    Patent number: 5784418
    Abstract: A digital broadcast transmission system comprises a plurality of spaced transmitters (6). Each transmitter (6) receives signals for transmission from a master transmitter (2), e.g. on a satellite, along with a reference frequency (F.sub.REF). The reference frequency is used to generate the transmission frequency at each spaced transmitter. At a receiver (12), conversion means can be used, to enable signals from the master transmitter (2) and from the other transmitter(s) to be received. A preferred application is digital audio broadcasting (DAB). Specifically, the present invention is useful in connection with Coded Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (COFDM) modulation.
