Abstract: A coding and modulation apparatus and method are presented. The apparatus (10) comprises an encoder (11) that encodes input data into cell words, and a modulator (12) that modulates said cell words into constellation values of a non-uniform constellation. The modulator (12) is configured to use, based on the total number M of constellation points of the constellation, the signal-to-noise ratio SNR in dB and the number n of the dimension of the constellation, an n-dimensional non-uniform constellation from a group of constellations, wherein each constellation point of an n-dimensional constellation diagram is defined by an n-tupel of constellation values, said n-tupel of constellation values defining parameter settings of a transmission parameter used by a transmission apparatus for transmitting a transmission stream obtained by conversion of said constellation values.

Abstract: A receiver for receiving data in a broadcast system includes a broadcast receiver that receives, via the broadcast system, a receiver input data stream including plural channel symbols represented by constellation points in a constellation diagram. A demodulator demodulates the channel symbols into codewords and a decoder decodes the codewords into output data words. A broadband receiver obtains redundancy data via a broadband system, the redundancy data for a channel symbol including one or more least robust bits of the channel symbol or a constellation subset identifier indicating a subset of constellation points including the constellation point representing the channel symbol. The demodulator and/or the decoder is configured to use the redundancy data to demodulate the respective channel symbol and to decode the respective codeword, respectively.

Abstract: A MIMO receiving system includes a MIMO antenna apparatus that receives a MIMO transmission signal including at least two MIMO transmission signal streams, wherein the MIMO transmission signal includes one or more MIMO transmission channels and wherein a MIMO transmission channel carrying one or more services includes two MIMO receive signal components covering a same frequency channel and being included in different transmission signal streams. A MIMO preprocessing apparatus preprocesses the MIMO transmission signal and outputs a multiplex signal. One or more receiving apparatus receive the multiplex signal from the output signal path to use a service contained in the single multiplex signal and output a service 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.

Abstract: A receiver for receiving data in a broadcast system includes a broadcast receiver that receives via the broadcast system a receiver input data stream including plural channel symbols represented by constellation points in a constellation diagram, a demodulator that demodulates the channel symbols into codewords, and a decoder that decodes the codewords into output data words. A redundancy calculator determines a required amount of redundancy data required for correct demodulation and decoding by use of the originally received channel symbol and additional redundancy data. A broadband request unit requests, if demodulation of a channel symbol and/or decoding of a codeword is erroneous or likely to fail, a required amount of redundancy data via a broadband system, that is received by a broadband receiver via said broadband system. The demodulator and/or the decoder is configured to use the redundancy data for demodulation and decoding, respectively.
