Disclosed is a device for filtering out a null packet in a data stream for example an MPEG-2 TS (Transport Stream) to avoid bandwidth waste when it is transmitted to a backbone network. The device includes a plurality of receiving interfaces, a filter unit, and a controller. The receiving interfaces receive parallel data, such as DVB-ASI (Digital Video Broadcasting-Asynchronous Serial Interface) inputs as channel-by-channel MPEG-2 data. The filter unit counts the respective numbers of data packets and non-data packets of the data input from the receiving interfaces and filters a null packet in the data. A network transmission unit transmits the filtered data to a backbone network. The controller calculates a bit rate based on both of the count numbers received from the filter unit.

An ONU device and a program notifying method thereof in a broadcasting-telecommunications system are provided. In the ONU device, a channel switching monitor generates channel switching information for each subscriber based on channel selection information received from the subscriber, a database stores a subscriber table for the subscriber based on the channel switching information and EIT information indicating a change during transmission of a broadcasting signal, and an EPG manager extracts the EIT information from digital broadcasting signal switching information received during switching of the digital broadcasting signals, transmits the EIT information to the database, generates personalized EPG information for the subscriber using the subscriber table, and transmits the personalized EPG information to the subscriber.
摘要:
A subscriber interface device and method for transmitting a communication signal and a broadcasting signal to each subscriber in a communication-broadcasting convergence FTTH system. A subscriber interface, positioned in the ONU, modulates a first predetermined number of broadcasting signals selected by a subscriber among broadcasting signals received from an OLT, combines a baseband communication signal received from the OLT with the modulated broadcasting signals, and optically transmits the combined communication-broadcasting signal. A subscriber interface receiver positioned in an ONT, splits the combined communication-broadcasting signal, filters the split signals to respective frequency bands, modulates the filtered broadcasting signals, transmits the modulated broadcasting signals to a monitor of the subscriber, and transmits the filtered communication signal as a baseband signal to a communication terminal of the subscriber instead of a passband signal.
