Abstract
The present invention relates to a control method for utilizing the set-top box of a digital television to realize a viewing investigation, which is characterized in that the method adopts an imbedded CPU as the main controller of the set-top box of the digital television, the CUP and a storage module are used to store and run the software system, and control each hardware module; a thread is added into the CPU of the set-top box of the digital television, an PID program information code and a equipment ID number is gained, the PID program information code, the ID number, a switch-on and switch-off information, and a channel changing information is sent to the data collection service to realize the investigation of the view ratio. The present invention has the advantages that the hardware investment is saved, the channel information can be rapidly recognized 100%, the channel information and channel code, the channel changing information, and the switch-on and switch-off information can be sent to the service for counting and analyzing in real time, and the viewing investigation without sampling which can not be realized at present is realized.
Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of television program receiving investigation methods, specifically a kind of control method of utilizing television digital set-top box to realize audience investigation.
Background technology
Along with the continuous development of digital television business, set-top box enters huge numbers of families just silently as the emerging household electrical appliances of receiving digital television.Different with the process of general television set received signal, after the Digital Television and Various types of data information that set-top box reception particular network operator is sent, by demodulation, demultiplexing, channel-decoding, backsight audio decoder, make the user can see high-quality video-audio program, in order to save channel resource, Digital Television adopts MPEG II digital compressed format transmitting data stream more simultaneously.4 of general many employings or 8 programs are compressed together, broadcast by a frequency.
Chinese patent 200610034523.3 discloses a kind of viewing rate data automatic acquiring, statistical system and method for digital television system, and this method adopts dual mode to obtain channel information: 1, use tuned frequency and program code as digital channel information; 2, all programs are distributed overall program unitedly and are encoded and identify a programs.Because TV station adopts the compression of frequency multiple programs, a scrambling to broadcast to Digital Television at present, so the method for the audience investigation that this patent adopts does not have feasibility.
Summary of the invention
For addressing the above problem, the invention provides a kind of control method of utilizing television digital set-top box to realize audience investigation, this method is by increasing a thread in the CPU of television digital set-top box, by obtaining PID programme information sign indicating number and device id number 2 functions, then with PID programme information sign indicating number and device id number 2 functions, and switching on and shutting down, change information such as platform and send to the investigation that data collection server realizes audience ratings, this method has been saved the hardware input, but quick identification frequency information, accuracy rate 100%, can be in real time with the channel information channel code, change platform, information such as switching on and shutting down send to the data collection server statistical analysis, have realized need not sampling in the prior art and have carried out audience rating investigating.
For achieving the above object, the present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions:
A kind of control method of utilizing television digital set-top box to realize audience investigation, hardware bundle includes network interface module, information source data transmission stream demodulation multiplexer, condition receiving processing module, video-audio decoder are connected successively with post-processing module, and each hardware all is connected with master controller, master controller is connected storage, ancillary equipment and interface circuit also, it is characterized in that, this method is the master controller of digital TV set-top box with the embedded type CPU, it and memory module are used for storing and the operating software system, and each hardware module is controlled; By in the CPU of television digital set-top box, increasing a thread, obtain PID programme information sign indicating number and device id number 2 functions, then with PID programme information sign indicating number and device id number 2 functions, and switching on and shutting down, change information such as platform and send to the investigation that data collection server realizes audience ratings.
Compared with prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects as follows:
This method is by increasing a thread in the CPU of television digital set-top box, by obtaining PID programme information sign indicating number and device id number 2 functions, then with PID programme information sign indicating number and device id number 2 functions, and switching on and shutting down, change information such as platform and send to the investigation that data collection server realizes audience ratings, this method has been saved the hardware input, but quick identification frequency information, accuracy rate 100%, can be in real time with the channel information channel code, change platform, information such as switching on and shutting down send to the data collection server statistical analysis, have realized need not sampling in the prior art and have carried out audience rating investigating.
