Abstract:
The present invention relates to a power amplification circuit of a mobile device for improving the efficiency and the linearity properties of the power amplifier. In one embodiment, the power amplifier improves these properties by controlling the input voltage of the supplemental amplifier so that the power amplifier operates as the Doherty mode in the low output power mode depending on the magnitude of the output power from the output unit and so that the input voltage of the supplemental amplifier may be increased up to satisfy the non-linear operational requirements of a power amplifier in the high output power mode. Moreover, because only the input voltage of the supplemental amplifier is controlled, the power amplifier can be implemented in a simple manner. Thus, the size of the power amplifier becomes small, which in turn reduces the cost of the power amplifier, among other things.
Abstract:
Provided is an apparatus and method for transmitting and receiving a streaming service. An inter-arrival jitter may correspond to a delay variation in arrival time between TCP packets arriving at an apparatus for receiving the streaming service. The apparatus for receiving the streaming service may determine a de-jitter buffering time to absorb a network jitter before TS packets in a TCP packet is input to a T-STD buffer model. Based on the de-jitter buffering time, an initial playout delay lime at the apparatus for receiving the streaming service may be determined.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for inserting scalability and view information into a Moving Picture Experts Group-2 (MPEG-2) Transport Stream (TS) header are provided. When a scalable video or multi-view video is transmitted using an MPEG-2 system, scalability information or view information regarding the scalable video or multi-view video in a payload in a TS level may be used. Using the scalability information or view information, the TS-packetized scalable video or multi-view video may be efficiently adapted to various terminal performances, various network characteristics, a specific user preference, and the like.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for an adaptive Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) streaming service using metadata of media content are provided. The media content may include a sequence of one or more periods. The metadata may include a start time attribute and/or a duration attribute of each of the periods. The metadata may determine a start time of each of the periods, and a start time of each of segments included in each of the periods. A terminal may access segments included in each of the periods, may decode and render data of media content included in the segments, and may play back the media content.
Abstract:
A power-scalable encoding/decoding apparatus and method. The method enables a media encoder/decoder to control, in real time, the power necessary for encoding or decoding process. Accordingly, a user or a system can choose the level of power consumption in accordance with the use environment of the encoder/decoder or the need of applications.
Abstract:
A system and method for performing source buffering to transmit a real-time encoded scalable video to multiple transmission groups are provided. A streaming system for providing a scalable video bitstream for each multicast group may include an encoder source buffer to receive a scalable video bitstream and to store the received scalable video bitstream, and a plurality of subgroup transmitters, each to receive data of different layers in the stored scalable video bitstream from the encoder source buffer, to packetize the received data, and to transmit the packetized data to a terminal.
Abstract:
A method for transmitting a main packet stream generated by multiplexing a plurality of substreams, using a single transmission channel, includes packeting each of the plurality of substreams and generating substream packets; allocating substream sequence information to the substream packets according to a sequence in which the substream packets are generated; allocating main packet stream sequence information to the substream packets according to a sequence in which the substream packets are inputted; and multiplexing inputted substream packets and generating the main packet stream.
