    Abstract: The invention concerns a method used for terrestrially transmitting at least one digital signal, in particular a digital radio and/or television broadcasting signal. According to this method, the at least one digital signal, whose data volume is reduced by coding, is preferably modulated by the OFDM method and transposed to the frequency position of at least one channel (31), which is adjacent at least one occupied or unoccupied channel (30, 32) for transmitting an analogue television broadcasting signal. The digital signal is then emitted in this frequency position. In this respect, the dynamic range and amplitude of the spectrum (41) of the at least one digital signal must be less than a predetermined value, which is far lower than the dynamic range and amplitude of the image carrier of the spectrum (35, 36) of the analogue television broadcasting signal, such that only slight inter and cross-modulation occurs with other digital signals or with analogue signals in other channels. The spectrum (41) of the at least one digital signal is transmitted separated from at least one adjacent channel (30, 32) by a protective frequency spacing (45). When a plurality of digital signals are transmitted in the at least one channel (31), the frequency ranges of at least two digital signals are transmitted separated from each other by a protective frequency spacing (50).

    Abstract: In an OFDM signal individual OFDM carriers are modulated by samples of signals which can only take a limited range of allowed values and a block of samples modulates the group of carriers during a time period T. In a receiver, the signal modulating an individual OFDM carrier may be demodulated by estimating the position of reference axes serving as the frame of reference against which the allowed modulating values are defined, and multiplying the value of the demodulated samples by the complex conjugate of a point on one of the estimated reference axes. The spread of the groups of samples demodulated from each OFDM carrier gives an indication of whether the receiver is synchronised to the block boundaries. Preferably spread of the complex samples is evaluated in the radial direction only and used to steer the sample clock frequency. Phase drift of the demodulated samples from one block to the next indicates the degree of local oscillator frequency error. Preferably phase drift is assessed by multiplying complex values by the complex conjugate of an earlier sample demodulated from the same OFDM carrier and using the resulting measure to steer the local oscillator frequency via a frequency locked loop.

    Abstract: An upconverter for converting IF television signals to VHF or UHF signals prior to broadcast is configured to process either analog or digital televison signals. The upconverter identifies the type of incoming television signal and generates an appropriate reference signal depending on whether the incoming televison signal is digital or analog. In an analog format, the reference signal is used by the modulator generating the IF signal to synchronize phase with the signals output by various other upconverters. In a digital format, the reference signal is used, for example, as a test signal for the upconversion circuit.

    Abstract: A system for transmitting digital programming includes a program source providing digital information, circuitry for modulating the digital information onto a visual carrier modulated with analog television programming, and a visual transmitter coupled to the modulating circuitry. Using a phase modulation method, the system phase modulates the digital information onto a visual carrier, reduces the baseband frequencies of the phase modulated visual carrier, and amplitude modulates the phase-modulated video carrier onto a video signal. The amplified and encoded video signal are combined with an amplified sound signal and transmitted. Using an additive method, the system modulates the sidebands of the video carrier with the digital information and amplitude modulates the video signal onto the video carrier. The data-modulated sidebands are phase-shifted such that they will be in quadrature with the amplitude-modulated video signal. The system combines the amplitude-modulated video carrier and the data-modulated quadrature sidebands. With a blended multiplicative/additive method, the system provides phase modulation and quadrature sideband addition to provide an optimized result.

    Abstract: A low power OFDM signal may be transmitted in an environment where it is subject to interference from other transmissions, e.g. broadcast television services. In a receiver interference is reduced by ignoring information modulating OFDM carriers at the frequencies corresponding to the carriers of the interfering transmissions; adjacent channel interference is reduced by ignoring data on OFDM carriers at the band edges and interference from third order intermodulation products is reduced by the ignoring OFDM carriers affected. Image channel interference is reduced by using an intermediate frequency for a first mixing process in the receiver such that the image channel interference affects OFDM carriers at frequencies which are already being ignored by the receiver. Preferably no data is modulated onto OFDM carriers which are to be ignored by the receiver. Preferably the modulation of the OFDM carriers is arranged so as to produce a real baseband representation of the OFDM signal.

    Abstract: A system for transmitting and receiving digital data which utilizes pre-coding at a transmitter, and selects post-coding at a receiver when co-channel interference or post-comb processing at the receiver when co-channel interference is present. The system comprises a symbol interleaver at the transmitter and a symbol deinterleaver at the receiver which minimizes the byte errors by organizing the data input at the pre-coder at the transmitter such that the symbol errors and their respective propagated errors are re-organized so as to be disposed adjacent to each other, thereby forming adjacent symbol errors. The effect of this re-organization is to increase the probability that each pair of adjacent symbol errors correspond to bits which lie in the same byte.

    Abstract: A television signal transmission signal comprises a suppressed carrier, VSB signal having respective Nyquist slopes at the lower and upper edges of a 6MHz television channel, the center frequency of the Nyquist slope at the lower edge of the channel being substantially coincident whith the frequency of the suppressed carrier, and the pilot signal in quadrature relation with the suppressed carrier. The suppressed carrier is modulated by an N-level digitally encoded signal having a sample rate fs substancially equalto three times the NTSC color subcarrier frequency, with the frequency of the color subcarrier being less than the co-channel NTSC picture carrier by an amount equal to about fs/12. The received signal is demodulated by a synchronous detector in response to the received pilot signal and interfering NTSC beat components are attenuated by a linear filter having notches at fs/12, 5fs/12 and fs/2. The output of the filter comprises an M-level signal, where M = greater than N, which is converted to a N-level output signal representing the televised image.
