摘要： A scheme is provided for communicating high rate isochronous data in an MPEG-2 type transport stream in a robust manner. The syntax for the data bitstream also provides for the communication of a data clock increment value to a decoder. The increment value enables a simplified and cost effective approach to the direct digital synthesis of a clock frequency necessary to recover data from the packetized data stream at the decoder. The time resolution for presenting isochronous data presentation units at the decoder is increased by providing a presentation time stamp (PTS) extension to supplement a standard MPEG-2 PTS.

摘要： The apparent accuracy of a clock circuit used to recover timing and transmitted information signals in a data receiver is improved. A timing relationship inherent in a received signal is detected prior to the acquisition of a timing component embedded in a desired information portion of the received signal. The timing relationship has an accuracy that is greater than the accuracy of the clock circuit. The clock circuit is controlled in response to the timing relationship to operate with an improved range of accuracy. Thereafter, the embedded timing component is acquired and used to control the clock circuit. In an illustrated embodiment, the timing relationship is derived from a symbol rate of the received signal. In an alternate embodiment, the timing relationship is obtained from a separate transmitted reference signal, such as a transmitted television signal.

摘要： A succession of variable length data packets containing a header portion and data portion are received. Selected data from the data packet headers is stored in designated locations of a header memory. A data packet start address is provided with each stored header portion to designate a location in a data memory for commencing the storage of data contained in a corresponding data packet. The data from the received data packets is stored commencing in the data memory locations designated by the corresponding data packet start addresses. In an illustrated embodiment, the data packets are macroblocks from digitized television frames. A plurality of next data packet position indicators are provided in the data, for use in periodically verifying macroblock boundaries during the receipt of the television data and to provide a rapid recovery from a transmission error affecting the actual or identified length of a macroblock.

摘要： A desired information stream is recovered from a pair of independent bitstreams transmitted using quadrature modulation. One of the independent bitstreams is altered by an invertible alteration function prior to transmission. The quadrature modulated bitstreams are demodulated at a receiver to provide a demodulated I bitstream and a demodulated Q bitstream. One of the demodulated I and Q bitstreams is tentatively provided for decoding. The tentatively provided bitstream can be optionally inverted. One of the tentatively provided bitstream and the optionally inverted bitstream is decoded if it is desired to recover the bitstream that was not altered by the alteration function prior to transmission. One of the tentatively provided bitstream and the optionally inverted bitstream is decoded after applying the inverse of the alteration function thereto if it is desired to recover the bitstream that was altered by the alteration function prior to transmission. An error rate of data decoded during the decoding step is determined. If the error rate is not acceptable, different choices of the demodulated I and Q bitstreams with and without inversion are tried until an acceptable error rate is obtained.
