The structural element that comprises in each structural element in the ofdm demodulator shown in Figure 2 in addition 103 and the general ofdm demodulator is identical, omits the relevant explanation of each structural element.
Next, in the digital broacast receiver to said structure, be used to represent that the digital broadcasting that received and the technology of receiving sensitivity information are explained based on present embodiment.Fig. 3 is the accompanying drawing of display frame structure example of the mobile telephone of the built-in digital broacast receiver based on present embodiment of expression.Fig. 3 (a) is the demonstration example of the menu screen of mobile telephone.In the display frame shown in Fig. 3 (a), demonstrate the 1st display part 301 that shows battery allowance, communication sensitivity etc., the 2nd display part 302 of display menu options.The menu option that shows on the 2nd display part 302 comprises TV, website, mail, address address list and planning chart project.
Below, in display part 302, having selected the occasion of TV, promptly selecting to utilize the occasion that receives received terrestrial digital broadcasting based on the digital broacast receiver of present embodiment, be explained with regard to the demonstration example of this mobile telephone.For other menu option outside above-mentioned, since identical with the function that comprises in the general mobile telephone, thereby omit explanation in this manual.
In the menu screen shown in Fig. 3 (a), select TV, carry out the TV channel selection after, demonstrate the communication broadcast display frame shown in Fig. 3 (b).Communication broadcast display frame comprises the 1st display part 301, broadcasting display part 303 and the communication display part 304 corresponding with the 2nd display part 302 among Fig. 3 (a) constitutes.Demonstrate the content body of the received terrestrial digital broadcasting that is received in the display part 303 in broadcasting, in communication display part 304, demonstrate relevance information that the content of enclosing sends and data broadcasting etc.For relevance information, can select the related informations such as result, Hawks homepage in personal data, other court to make it to show such as A player.
After in communication display part 304, having selected " sensitivity ", demonstrate the broadcast reception sensitivity display frame shown in Fig. 3 (c).The receiving sensitivity that receiving sensitivity display frame 305 comes display of broadcast in bar figure mode.In demonstration example based on present embodiment, will be such as receiving sensitivity 100 as the fiducial value that can normally receive broadcasting.Preferably constitute in addition, selective reception power and C/N than in have more that a side of low value is used as receiving sensitivity, even low value under the occasion of the fiducial value (this value is made as 100) that satisfies necessity, also can be judged and can normally receive broadcasting.
In mobile telephone based on present embodiment, since the receiving sensitivity of broadcasting be lower than setting and can not normally receiving under the occasion of broadcasting, of the display frame when demonstrating such as can not receive shown in Fig. 3 (d)~Fig. 3 (f).In the broadcasting display part 303 in the time can not receiving, replace broadcasted content, demonstrate positional information and receiving sensitivity parameter.In Fig. 3 (d), the 1st display frame as can not receive the time demonstrates " being in outside the service area " message bar figure relevant with receiving sensitivity.In Fig. 3 (e), the 2nd display frame as can not receive the time demonstrates " because of noise can not receive " message and C/N bar figure.For C/N, demonstrate the value that is lower than fiducial value 100, promptly about 70 value.In Fig. 3 (f), the 3rd display frame as can not receive the time demonstrates the bar figure of " electric wave is crossed weak can not the reception " message and received power.For received power, demonstrate the value that is lower than fiducial value 100, promptly about 70 value.Like this, message such as " being in outside the service area " will be that origin shows with positional information and receiving sensitivity parameter.
Because the digital broacast receiver based on present embodiment is built in mobile telephone, thereby owing to look moving of hearer, the receiving sensitivity of its broadcasting will change successively.Therefore, the display frame of normal Fig. 3 (b) that receives broadcasting or Fig. 3 (c) and the Fig. 3 (d) can not receive the time preferably automatically switch according to the reception situation to the display frame of Fig. 3 (f).
Because in digital broacast receiver based on present embodiment, broadcasting display part 303 and receiving sensitivity display part 305 are shown in other zone, thereby also have can be under the occasion that reception environment worsens, the variation of receiving sensitivity is watched on the limit from receiving sensitivity display part 305, the direction of antenna and the advantage of receiving position are adjusted in the limit.
To be expression utilize above-mentioned mobile telephone to select receiving to of digital broadcasting to carry out the action till video shows and the flow chart of the flow process of the display frame change action that changes based on receiving sensitivity from looking the hearer to Fig. 4.In addition hereinafter, the process that the action of mobile telephone side is controlled by control part shown in Figure 1 109 is explained.
At first, look the hearer on the menu screen shown in Fig. 3 (a), select TV (step 401) as the selection button that is used to receive TV, next, (steps 402) such as selective reception channel, display modes.Being provided with based on the occasion of the positional information measuring ability of GPS etc. in mobile telephone or logining in terminal in advance has under the occasion of receiving position, judges to have or not the relevant broadcasting of selected channel promptly whether receiving position is in the service area (step 403).If in step 403, its receiving position is in outside the service area, then shows this fact (step 404).If be in the service area, mobile telephone detects from the receiving sensitivity information (aftermentioned) (step 405) of tuner 102 (Fig. 1) and ofdm demodulator 103 (Fig. 1) acquisition.Mobile telephone judges that next based on this receiving sensitivity information whether current receiving sensitivity satisfies for receiving the necessary stipulated standard value of broadcasting (step 406) of above-mentioned selection channel, if satisfy benchmark, then demonstrates image (step 407).
In current receiving sensitivity, all do not satisfy the occasion of specified reference value such as received power and C/N ratio, perhaps the value of any one party does not reach under the occasion of fiducial value (step 408, step 410), shown in Fig. 3 (d)~Fig. 3 (f), display frame example according to can not receive the time, demonstrate expression and can not receive this true message (step 409,411 and 412), demonstrate receiving sensitivity information simultaneously.But look the hearer limit and observe receiving sensitivity information, the frontier inspection rope is suitable for the antenna direction of broadcast reception and receiving position etc., finds out more suitably position.
Next, in the digital broacast receiver based on present embodiment, the method for measuring receiving sensitivity is explained.To as receiving sensitivity parameter, adopted the received power and the example of the C/N ratio of received signal to be explained.Constitute among Fig. 1, tuner 102 detects received power, and ofdm demodulator 103 (in C/N specific output portion 213 shown in Figure 2) detects the C/N ratio of received signal, and it is outputed to control part 109 respectively.Ofdm demodulator 103 constitutes in addition, the BER of received signal is outputed to the control part 109 of Fig. 1 from the BER efferent 214 of Fig. 2.
Control part 109 shown in Figure 1 contrasts the benchmark of information such as the C/N ratio imported, BER and regulation, and calculates receiving sensitivity information, outputs to display 119 by vision signal handling part 118.Here, to being used to calculate the benchmark of receiving sensitivity information, consider various forms of implementation.Such as, to each parameter of received power and C/N ratio, the reception fiducial value corresponding with each modulation system of employing in the broadcasting can be set at 100%, obtain scaled value, make that its value also changes, and it is shown as parameter corresponding to general amplitude of fluctuation in suitable scope.Like this, can avoid, thereby can not obtain being used to improving the situation of the concrete guide of reception situation because each parameter can only show with diadic in fact.
In addition, each parameter of received power and C/N ratio is being carried out comprehensive assessment, calculating under the occasion of receiving sensitivity information, also can detect, and this value reached becoming undoubtedly seemingly threshold value BER=2 * 10 of error such as the BER value behind the Veterbi decoding -4The time accepting state as the benchmark of receiving sensitivity 100%.Like this, under the occasion of not utilizing the BER value, to C/N received power when, also can utilize the calculating formula that derives in advance (such as, carry out the C/N calculating formula of the weighting and so on of received power when) calculate receiving sensitivity.Perhaps as more easy method, also can select C/N than with received power in the bad side of condition, it is worth as receiving sensitivity information.
Following with reference to accompanying drawing, the variation based on the display mode in the digital broacast receiver of above-mentioned execution mode is explained.Fig. 5 (a)~Fig. 5 (d) is the accompanying drawing of display mode that expression is different from the receiving sensitivity information of mode shown in Figure 3.The demonstration example of representing respectively among Fig. 5 almost shows in the whole display frame of mobile telephone in addition, such as under the occasion of the broadcast reception sensitivity display frame of the communication broadcast display frame that demonstrates Fig. 3 (b) and Fig. 3 (c), can automatically display frame be switched to shown in Figure 5 each and show example by user operation or based on receiving sensitivity etc.
In the demonstration example 1 shown in Fig. 5 (a), represent respectively that with bar figure C/N is than (C/N), received power (Power) and they have been carried out the receiving sensitivity (Total) of overall merit.In the demonstration example 2 shown in this external Fig. 5 (b), only with above-mentioned overall merit receiving sensitivity show with bar figure.According to these display modes, look the hearer and can hold current accepting state based on the demonstration that continuously changes shown parameter to a certain extent, and based on these demonstrations, attempt changing the aerial position of mobile telephone and receiving position etc., can explore better reception environment thus.
In the demonstration example 3 shown in Fig. 5 (c), received power and C/N ratio are carried out two-dimensional transformations show.The longitudinal axis is represented received power (power), and transverse axis is represented C/N (ratio).Among Fig. 5 (c), the current reception situation of point 502 expressions.The region representation that has oblique line can reception area.According to the demonstration shown in Fig. 5 (c), look the hearer and can explore relevant received power and C/N than more good reception environment based on 2 dimension information.
