Abstract: A coding and modulation apparatus and method are presented. The apparatus comprises an encoder that encodes input data into cell words, and a modulator that modulates said cell words into constellation values of a non-uniform constellation. The modulator is configured to use, based on the total number M of constellation points of the constellation and the code rate, a non-uniform constellation from one or several groups of constellations each comprising one or more constellations.

Abstract: An apparatus and a corresponding method for mapping payload data of mapping input data streams onto a mapping output data stream having a channel bandwidth for transmission in a multi-carrier broadcast system includes first and second frame forming mechanisms. The first frame forming mechanism is adapted to form first frames having a first frame structure and the second frame forming mechanism is adapted to form second frames having a second frame structure. Preferably, in a second frame structure the data blocks of a particular mapping input data stream are spread in time and frequency over various data symbols and various data segments of the second frames to provide high robustness against disturbances. The payload portion of the second frame is preferably segmented into various data segments enabling use of a narrow-band receiver, even if both the first and second frames cover the same total channel bandwidth.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus and a corresponding method for mapping error correction code encoded time-domain data of at least two mapping input data streams (S1, S2, . . . , Sn) onto a time-domain mapping output data stream (Q) having a frame structure, comprising a data input (102) for receiving said at least two mapping input data streams (S1, S2, . . . , Sn) each being segmented into data blocks (D1, D2, . . . , DN) carrying error correction code encoded data, a data mapper (104) for mapping the data blocks (D1, D2, . . . , DN) of said at least two mapping input data streams (S1, S2, . . . , Sn) onto frames of said mapping output data stream (Q), each frame comprising a number of frame intervals (F1, F2, . . . , FM), wherein the data mapper (104) is adapted for mapping the data blocks (D1, D2, . . . , DN) onto said frame intervals such that each frame interval (F1, F2, . . . , FM) carries sequentially arranged data blocks (D1, D2, . . . , DN) from various mapping input data streams (S1, S2, . . . , Sn) and that within a frame the mapping of data blocks (D1, D2, . . . , DN) from the various mapping input data streams (S1, S2, . . . , Sn) onto frame intervals (F1, F2, . . . , FM) is different from frame interval to frame interval, and a data output (110) for outputting said mapping output data stream (Q).

Abstract: A transmitter for transmitting payload data and emergency information using data symbols in a single-carrier or multi-carrier broadcast system comprises a modulator configured to modulate one or more transmission symbols with signaling data for use in detecting and recovering the payload data at a receiver and to modulate one or more transmission symbols with the payload data. An emergency information receiver receives emergency information carrying information of an actual emergency. An emergency information embedder embeds emergency information into one or more transmission symbols, wherein the emergency information is embedded within a predetermined time period after its reception by using a resource used for carrying signaling data and/or payload data if no emergency information shall be transmitted. A transmission unit transmits the transmission symbols.

Abstract: A transmitter and transmission method for broadcasting data. To enable a receiver, such as a moving receiver, to improve decoding quality, if needed, a transmitter includes: a data input receiving at least one transmitter input data stream segmented into input data words; an encoder error correction code encoding the input data words into codewords including a basic codeword portion and an auxiliary codeword portion, the encoder generating the basic codeword portion from an input data word according to a first code and generating the auxiliary codeword portion from an input data word according to a second code, the basic codeword portion for regular decoding and the auxiliary codeword portion for incremental redundancy if regular decoding of the codeword by using the basic codeword portion is erroneous; a data mapper mapping the codewords onto frames of a transmitter output data stream; and a transmitter transmitting the transmitter output data stream.

Abstract: A control device for use in a broadcast system includes a broadcast controller that controls a broadcast transmitter of the broadcast system that broadcasts broadcast signals in a coverage area for reception by terminals including a broadcast receiver and a broadband receiver, and a broadband controller that controls a broadband server of a broadband system that provides redundancy data to terminals within the coverage area. The broadband controller is configured to control the provision of redundancy data by the broadband server for use by one or more terminals which use the redundancy data together with broadcast signals received via said broadcast system for recovering content received within the broadcast signals and/or provided via the broadband system.
