Disclosed is an error correction in reproducing a digital signal of a digital audio system or a PCM reproducing system. Code words such as doubly-encoded Reed-Solomon code comprise first code blocks including a plurality of information words arranged in a first arrangement and a plurality of first check words generated by a code having a Hamming distance of d, to said information words, and second code blocks including a plurality of information words arranged in a second arrangement and a plurality of first check words each having a plurality of information words and a plurality of first check words belonging to different one of said first blocks, and a plurality of second check words generated by a code having a Hamming distance of d 2 to said plurality of information words and said plurality of first check words, are decoded to correct errors. For such a doubly-encoded error correction code, at least error detection is effected in a first decoding and flags indicating decoding conditions are added. In a second decoding, error detection for the first code blocks and error correction for S 2 words at unknown locations and E flagged word erasure, where S 2 and E satisfy a relation of 2S 2 + E S d, - 1, are parallelly or sequestially are effected, and a combination of S 2 and E having a high correction capability and a low probability of mis-correction is selected from a plurality of correction results of error locations and the number of flags added at the first decoding, and the word errors are corrected based on the selected combination.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for embedding additional information embeds plural pieces of additional information on a signal as electronic watermark information. In detail, plural pieces of additional information to be embedded on a signal are generated, the additional information is converted into electronic watermark information, the sizes of embedding parts for respective electronic watermark information are defined under control, and the electronic watermark information is embedded on the signal based on the control signal. Therefore, the additional information are embedded so that additional information having a higher significance degree can be more reliably and rapidly detected.

摘要:
At recording of a video signal, with electronic watermark information being embedded therein, on a recording medium, a reference signal which is formed differently from the watermark information is inserted to the video signal. At reproduction of the video signal, the luminance of the watermark information is modified based on the reference signal.

In order to reproduce data scrambled in respective manners to recordable recording medium, it is necessary to take the step of discriminating if the reproduction signal comes from any recording medium before descrambling the data. Further, before doing the control, it is necessary to discriminate if the data is copy-permitted or copy-prohibited. To accomplish this process, a data recording and reproducing apparatus includes a first reproducing unit 1, a second reproducing unit 7 for receiving the data processed by the first reproducing unit and executing the next reproducing process about the data, a first authenticating unit 4 for authenticating the first reproducing unit 1, a second authenticating unit 8 positioned in correspondence with the first authenticating unit and for authenticating the second reproducing unit. The data recording and reproducing apparatus provides different authenticating unit (5, 6, 9, 10) from the first and the second authenticating units so that those authenticating units may execute the corresponding authentications before descrambling the data.
摘要:
Electronic watermark information obtained by changing a luminance value of a luminance signal in a video signal and a copy generation management signal (CGMS signal) inserted into an area out of a scan region of the video signal are recorded into a recording medium. A reproducing apparatus comprises an electronic watermark information detecting circuit, a CGMS signal detecting circuit, a control circuit to which detected electronic watermark information and CGMS signal are supplied, and a video signal processing circuit controlled by an output of the control circuit. When the electronic watermark information and the CGMS signal have a rational relation, the video signal processing circuit is controlled to output the video signal.
