Abstract:
A method for receiving contents using a mobile terminal according to the present invention is provided. The method includes generating a security channel connected to system being in charge of a service and content protection (SCP) client through an agent downloaded and installed in a mobile terminal; downloading and installing one or multiple SCP client software of different kind from the system through the security channel generated by the agent; and playing back the service or content provided in protected state by a content provider among the one or multiple SCP client software of different kind by driving the decodable SCP client software.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a network protocol for contents protection in a digital cable broadcasting service and a conditional access system using the protocol. A method for renewing conditional access client software (CACS) by a conditional access module in a renewable conditional access system (RCAS) may include: receiving an RCAS announcement message from a headend; transmitting to the headend a key registration request message for requesting an authorization key when the RCAS announcement message is authenticated; receiving a key registration response message including the authorization key from the headend; and generating security factors based on the authorization key and renewing the CACS by using the security factors.
Abstract:
Provided is a system and method of providing a sign language broadcasting service to viewers having hearing impairments, and more particularly, the system and method of providing a sign language broadcasting service that may enable a user to select an option of viewing only a broadcast image, or an option to viewing both the broadcast image and a sign language interpreting image, by transmitting the broadcast image and the sign language interpreting image using different transport streams.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a roll-off period detection method, a symbol starting point detection method, a fractional frequency offset estimating method, and an OFDM downstream system using the same. A method of detecting a roll-off period in an OFDM downstream system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may include: generating a temporary roll-off period by applying a windowing function to a signal having a preset length; and detecting a roll-off period based on any one of a cross correlation and a sum of differences between a detection target signal included in a range of two OFDM symbol signals based on a detection starting point, and the temporary roll-off period.
Abstract:
A method of estimating an integer frequency offset and compensating for the integer frequency offset by an estimated error is provided. A frequency offset estimation method may include receiving a reception signal including PLC data and a physical layer link channel (PLC) preamble, detecting first position information on a position of a subcarrier of the PLC preamble in a frequency axis from the reception signal through a cross-correlation between the PLC preamble and the reception signal, detecting second position information on the position of the subcarrier of the PLC preamble defined in a transmission end by restoring the PLC data, and calculating a frequency offset by comparing the first position information with the second position information.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for providing a mobile broadcasting service over a cable broadcasting network are provided. A mobile broadcast signal and a cable broadcast signal are transmitted over the cable broadcast network. The cable broadcast signal and the mobile broadcast signal are filtered to pass the mobile broadcast signal, and the passed mobile broadcast signal is sent to a mobile broadcast terminal.
Abstract:
An apparatus for offset compensation in high-order modulated orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) transmission, the apparatus including a transmitter to configure a pilot signal for transmission and reception synchronization and distortion estimation as a frame, and transmit the frame, and a receiver to estimate a channel distortion of a received signal by estimating and compensating for a clock offset and a frequency offset with respect to the received signal.
Abstract:
A demultiplexing apparatus, a multiplexing apparatus, and a multi-channel transmission and reception method using the same are provided. The demultiplexing apparatus includes a broadcasting data reception unit for separating a broadcasting data stream into N input packets, an output packet generation unit for generating (N+1) output packets by connecting a pre-header, including a field for multi-channel transmission, with each of the N input packets, and a packet distribution unit for distributing the (N+1) output packets over at least two channels. The multiplexing apparatus includes a packet restoration unit for detecting first field information for restoration and second field information for synchronization from each of pre-headers included in (N+1) output packets received through at least two channels and generating N restoration packets using the first field information and an output synchronization unit for performing output timing synchronization between the N restoration packets using the second field information.
Abstract:
Provided is a broadcasting receiver including a broadcasting signal receiving unit to receive a broadcasting signal via a broadcasting network, a viewing possibility determining unit to determine whether it is possible for a viewer to view the broadcasting signal, a multicasting signal receiving unit to receive a multicasting signal via a wireless communication network, a switching and combining unit to combine or switch the received broadcasting signal and the multicasting signal, and a controlling unit to request the multicasting signal transmitting unit to multicast the multicasting signal based on the determination result, to request the multicasting signal receiving unit to receive the multicasting signal, and to control the switching and combining unit depending on whether the multicasting signal is received.
Abstract:
An adaptive multi-view streaming processing method and apparatus for a multi-view stream is disclosed. Specifically, disclosed herein is a method and apparatus for adaptively processing or transmitting adaptive streaming by reflecting network states and changes in transmission environments in a multi-view streaming service environment where several or more multiple videos are simultaneously transmitted at an arbitrary moment. An adaptive streaming processing method for a multi-view stream may comprise selecting and downloading an i-th segment of a main view stream with a first quality level, inferring a size of an i-th segment of downloadable neighboring view streams based on a download time and transfer rate of the i-th segment of the main view stream, and selecting a second quality level corresponding to the inferred size of the i-th segment of the neighboring view streams and downloading the i-th segment of the neighboring view streams based on the selected second quality level.
