  • Publication number: 20050013380
    Abstract: Digital broadcasting transmission/reception systems capable of improving the synchronization acquisition and the equalization performance, and signal processing methods thereof. The digital broadcasting transmission/reception systems include a FEC encoder encoding an incoming signal according to a FEC scheme, a sync signal insertion unit inserting into the encoded signal a segment sync signal including modified segment syncs, a pilot insertion unit inserting a pilot signal into the sync-inserted signal, a pulse shaping filter pulse-shaping the pilot-inserted signal with a roll-off factor, and a RF unit transmitting the pulse-shaped signal through a transmission channel band. The modified segment sync includes a predetermined number of sync signals, and an average of correlation values with respect to the predetermined number of the sync signals has an auto-correlation property.

  • Publication number: 20050015818
    Abstract: A digital broadcasting transmission/reception system having an improved receiving performance and a signal processing method thereof. The transmission system includes a FEC encoder encoding an incoming signal according to a certain FEC scheme, a sync insertion unit inserting a sync into the encoded signal, a hidden pilot insertion unit inserting a hidden pilot into the sync-inserted signal, a pilot insertion unit inserting a pilot tone into the hidden-pilot-inserted signal, a pulse shaping filter pulse-shaping the pilot-tone-inserted signal with a certain roll-off factor, and a RF unit transmitting the pulse-shaped signal through a transmission channel band. Performances of equalization and synchronization acquirement can be enhanced in multipath conditions by utilizing the transmission system containing the hidden pilot.

  • Publication number: 20040223085
    Abstract: A device for removing an interference signal with a different characteristic included in input signals and an interference signal removing method are disclosed. The device for removing an interference signal comprises an IIR notch filter for generating a notch to remove the signal with a different characteristic included in the input signals, a frequency tracking unit for tracking a frequency in the frequency domain for the signal with a different characteristic included in the input signals to provide a position value of the notch, and a power ratio calculation unit for calculating a power ratio of the signal different from the input signals on the characteristic and providing a depth value of the notch set in correspondence with the calculated power ratio, wherein the IIR notch filter removes the signal with a different characteristic using the position value and the depth value. Accordingly, the signal with a different characteristic included in the input signals can be correctly removed.

  • Patent number: 6673231
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for removing sludge in a crude oil storage tank by use of thermal oil discharged from a distillation tower of an oil refinery, such as atmospheric residue, vacuum residue, or vacuum gas oil, and recovering oil having various applications by separating inorganics therefrom. The method is advantageous in terms of minimizing air pollution because of utilizing a closed system, drastically reduced washing time of crude oil storage tank, and continuous removal of the sludge. Additionally, the recovered oil can be provided as fuel oil, marine oil or a feed for secondary treatment processes, such as up-grading processes of heavy oil.
