Description

A kind of channel switching method
Technical field
The present invention relates to the network communications technology field, be specifically related to a kind of channel switching method.
Background technology
Handheld digital TV adopts OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex, OFDM) technology, OFDM is a kind of multi-carrier digital communications modulation technique, because OFDM has the higher availability of frequency spectrum and good anti-multipath interference performance, therefore, areas such as Europe, Australia are applied to OFDM the aspects such as broadband data communication, digital audio broadcasting, high definition digital television and WLAN (wireless local area network) of broadcast channel.OFDM also is counted as one of core technology of the 4th third-generation mobile communication.
The release of OFDM technology is in order to improve the spectrum of carrier utilance, to be characterized in that each subcarrier is mutually orthogonal in fact, and like this, the frequency spectrum after the modulation can be overlapped, thereby avoid the phase mutual interference between subcarrier.
Protection introducing at interval is one of characteristic of ofdm system technology, also is the reason place that can effectively resist the time delay expansion.Insert a segment protect before the symbol at interval, guaranteeing protection at interval under the prerequisite greater than the maximum delay expansion of wireless channel, can eliminate the interference that the multipath component of a symbol causes next symbol.
The Adaptive Modulation mechanism of OFDM can make different subcarriers different according to channel situation and noise background, uses different modulation systems.When channel condition was good, subcarrier can adopt the high modulation system of efficient; In the time of bad channel conditions, subcarrier can adopt the strong modulation system of antijamming capability.
OFDM requires between each subcarrier mutually orthogonal, can realize this modulation system well by adopting fast fourier transform, adopts the fast fourier transform mode can greatly reduce operand.
Because handheld digital TV has the demand of electrical energy saving, so program generally adopts time-multiplexed mode to transmit, like this, when channel switches, must know the positional information of the program that will switch.
At present, the channel switching method of handheld digital TV mainly contains two kinds:
Method one, based on the channel switching method of superframe.
The signal that MediaFLO (Media Forward Link Only, forward link media delivery) sends is formed superframe, and the structure of superframe as shown in Figure 1.
Among Fig. 1, each superframe comprises: 4 Frames, TDM (time division multiplexing) pilot tone and OIS (Overhead Information Symbols, overhead information symbol) information; Wherein, include wide area and local data in 4 Frames.The TDM pilot tone is mainly used to quick lock-on signal, obtains superframe-synchronized.The OIS information description position of data in superframe of each media business.
Using method one is being carried out channel when switching, handheld digital TV must be earlier superframe synchronously, then, from OIS information, take out the positional information that needs the program that switches, like this, average channel switching time is the time of a superframe, channel is long switching time.
Method two, based on the channel switching method of DVB-H (Digital Video Broadcasting-Handheld, digital video broadcasting-hand-held).
The physical frame structure of DVB-H as shown in Figure 2.Among Fig. 2, include n OFDM symbol in each program frame in the DVB-H physical frame, part bandwidth in the program frame is used for transmitting specially the TPS signaling of indication DVB-H business information and the PSI/SI (Program Specific Information/serviceInformation, programme information/business information) of indication programme information.Handheld digital TV carries out channel by the search programme information and switches.
DVB-H carries out channel when switching by search PSI/SI information, needs all programs of traversal need to determine the positional information of the program of switching, thereby causes channel long switching time.
