摘要:
A device and method for utilizing a single clock signal (300) to generate a digital data stream signal for transmission in a compressed domain transmission system. The device includes a plurality of packetized elementary stream encoders (100) electronically coupled to a transport stream encoder (200) electronically coupled to an output interface (600) to generate the digital stream signal. The method uses the single clock reference signal (300) to operate each of the packetized elementary stream encoders (100) to generate a plurality of packetized elementary signals, operate the transport stream encoder (200) to form a transport stream signal from the plurality of packetized elementary stream signals, operate the output interface (600) to output the digital stream signal in a predetermined manner.
摘要:
A digital information receiver (100) having a single oscillator (118) providing a clock signal to the receiver circuitry. The receiver (100) contains, in addition to the oscillator (118), an input signal processor (102), a symbol time loop, a demodulator (106), a transport decoder (108), a transport timing loop, one or more applications decoders (102) and a presentation device (116). The input signal processor (102) digitizes an input signal and resamples the input signal using an interpolator (204) such that the input signal is optimally sampled. The resampling is controlled by a symbol timing loop. In a first embodiment, the transport timing loop controls the frequency of the oscillator (118) using transmitter timing information contained in the received signal. In the second embodiment, the oscillator (1202) is a free running oscillator and the transport timing loop controls a numerically controlled counter (1002) that, in turn, controls presentation timing of the information carried by the information in the input signal. After the input signal is decoded, an output interpolator (1204) generates continuous signals from somewhat bursty signals for utilization by the presentation device.
