Embodiment
Now, describe embodiments of the invention in detail, its example represents that in the accompanying drawings wherein, identical label is represented identical parts all the time.Below by embodiment being described with reference to the drawings to explain the present invention.In addition, because known function or structure will blur the present invention on unnecessary details, therefore will be not described in detail.
Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 illustrate the structure according to the MPEG bag of the mpeg system standard of using in the ATSC digital television standard.As shown in Figure 3, MPEG comprises that Sync_Byte, 1 bit transmit bag error designator, 1 bit load unit begins designator, 1 bit transmission Priority flag, 13 bit PID (Packet Identifier) values, 2 bits transmission scrambler control designator, 2 bit self adaptation fields control designator and 4 bit continuity counters.Load and/or self adaptation field are immediately following the 4 bit continuity counter back that showing.
As shown in Figure 4, in the MPEG bag, use Option Field (for example, program clock reference (PCR), original program clock reference (OPCR), slice_point, transmission proprietary data length, self adaptation field data and self adaptation field extension sign) to send for example information of PCR, OPCR, splicing counter, transmission exclusive data length and self adaptation field extension length.Here, Option Field can be: PCR, as the synchronizing signal of the demodulator of receiver; OPCR is used at receiver record, predetermined and playback program; The splicing counter is the number (each macro block comprises four circuit blocks, Cr piece and Cb piece) of continuous macro block; Transmitting exclusive data length, is the length of the text data of text broadcasting; And self adaptation field extension length.The discontinuous indicator field of 1 bit, 1 bit random access indicator field, the basic flow priority indicator field of 1 bit, 1 bit self adaptation field length field and a signization self adaptation field (flagged adaptation head field) have been shown in addition.
Fig. 5 to Fig. 9 illustrates to insert to replenish canonical sequence (SRS) transmits stream with the MPEG-2 of the various forms of realization transmitter according to an aspect of the present invention diagrammatic sketch.Here, for convenience of explanation, sync byte three bytes afterwards that transmit stream are collectively referred to as normal header, and two bytes of self adaptation field are collectively referred to as self adaptation field (AF) head.Yet, can use the byte of other titles and/or number.
Usually, SRS is the special known array that inserts in the VSB frame of determining, thereby the equalizer of receiver can utilize this known array to alleviate dynamic multi-path and other disadvantageous channel conditions.The equalizer of receiver uses these contiguous sequence (contiguous sequence) to make the channel that oneself adapts to dynamic change.When coder state is forced into known definite state (DTR), handle additional " known array " (SRS pattern) of calculating in advance of bit subsequently in a predetermined manner immediately in the special time position of the frame of interleaver input.Because the working method of the interleaver of compatible ATSC will occur in abutting connection with pattern of symbol as known in the known location of symbol in the VSB frame that interleaver output obtains, receiver can be used as the additional equalizer training sequence.Use existing standard mechanism, but be used to create the data drawing-in system of these known symbol sequences flowing in (TS) bag to compatibility mode according to the back in transmission.In MPEG2 self adaptation field, carry this data.Therefore, these existing standards are supported, and have guaranteed compatibility.
The RS encoder of interleaver front calculates the RS parity check.Owing to reset the TCM encoder, the RS parity byte mistake of calculating and need being repaired.Therefore additional treatment step relates to the parity error of correcting in the bag of selecting.Have the RS parity check recompile of all bags of parity error with them.Generation uses time enough to come parity byte is encoded again in abutting connection with (52) section byte interleaver device support of the unique time diversity characteristic of having of SRS pattern.The maximum number of the time restriction SRS byte that needs.
Fig. 5 is presented at the structure of the MPEG-2 bag data of the citation form in the VSB system that uses SRS.This MPEG-2 bag data comprise: normal header part (PID (bag sign) that comprises the synchronizing signal and three bytes of a byte), self adaptation field (AF) head (comprising the information about the position of byte of padding) of two bytes and the byte of padding of designated length N.The remainder bytes of bag data is with corresponding as the normal flow of general load data.Because the starting position of byte of padding is fixed, therefore adopt about the information of the length of byte of padding and express information about byte location.The byte of padding length N can be in 1 to 27 scope.
Fig. 6 to Fig. 9 illustrates has the self adaptation field to use the pack arrangement of SRS effectively, comprises for example other information of program clock reference (PCR), original program clock reference (OPCR), splicing counter (splice_count) etc. in the self adaptation field.In these cases, the self adaptation field is configured to has unified size.Part except the information of AF head and for example PCR, OPCR, splice_count etc. is corresponding with the byte of padding that will insert SRS.To understand, except the pack arrangement that shows among Fig. 6 to Fig. 9,, exist make up the multiple mode of transport stream packet with the fill area of in the zone except the zone of the Option Field of self adaptation field, inserting SRS according to each side of the present invention.
Figure 10 is the block diagram that illustrates according to the structure of the digital broadcast transmitter of the embodiment of the invention.With reference to Figure 10, digital broadcast transmitter comprises that multiplexer (MUX) 320 behind TS multiplexer (MUX) 310, the TS, randomizer 330, SRS insert unit 340, RS encoder 350, data interleaver 360, trellis encoder 370, backward compatibility parity generator 380 and multiplexer 390.TS MUX 310 receiver, videos stream and audio stream, and make up existing MPEG transport stream packet.MUX 320 is formed for the fill area of SRS data insertion from the transport stream packet of TS MUX 310 outputs behind the TS, and exports this MPEG and transmit stream.(but being not limited to) shows by suitably moving for example example of the stream of the position of PCR, OPCR, splicing counter, transmission proprietary data length, self adaptation field extension length and other data in Fig. 6 to Fig. 9.
Randomizer 330 transmits the flow data randomization to improve the utilization of the channel space of distributing with the MPEG-2 of input.SRS inserts unit 340 and produces SRS.SRS is the specified sequence (for example training sequence) with the designated mode of arranging in advance between transmitter-side and receiver side.SRS inserts unit 340 byte of padding in the byte of padding position of randomization data is replaced with SRS.Because SRS and load data are differentiable (the SRS pattern are sent out/receive), so can be easily detected and be used for synchronous and balanced at receiver side SRS.
When SRS insertion unit 340 exchanged byte of padding in bag, RS encoder 350 added the parity check of specified bytes to bag to correct the error that causes owing to channel by the bag data being carried out the RS coding.Interleaver 360 interweaves to having added from the packet of the parity check of RS encoder 350 output with designated mode.Trellis encoder 370 will be converted to data symbol from the data of interleaver 360 outputs, and come data symbol DO symbol is shone upon by the grid coding of 2/3 code check.
According to an aspect of the present invention, will to be stored in the value initialization in himself the storage arrangement be designated value to trellis encoder 370 temporarily.For example, initialized value can be " 00 " state.No matter what this value is, carries out initialization in the starting point of SRS.370 pairs of these data of trellis encoder are carried out grid coding.In addition, the value that trellis encoder 370 will be used for initializes memory outputs to backward compatibility parity generator 380, the new parity check that reception is produced by backward compatibility parity generator 380, and, carry out grid coding thereby use from the new parity check of backward compatibility parity generator 380 receptions with the corresponding existing parity check of new parity check replacement that receives.
The output of trellis encoder 370 and next memory state are subjected to the influence of previous memory value.Just, if previous input changes, then will be used for initialized input and change.If with the parity check of the corresponding bag of initialization area in the initialization area front, then because the new parity check that produces, the input value that before had been used for the memory of initialization trellis encoder 370 is changed.In this case, can not carry out initialization, perhaps use the initial value of correcting to produce accurate parity check.Therefore, according to aspects of the present invention, for the parity check that prevents initial package in the front of prime area, the maximum quantity of the byte of padding that the aspect is used according to the present invention becomes 27.Yet, should be appreciated that, for the bag of other types of the section that is divided into other numbers, can adopt other maximum numbers of the byte of padding of use.
According to an aspect of the present invention, backward compatibility parity generator 380 is by using from the initialize memory value of trellis encoder 370 inputs, produce new parity check to carry out RS coding (that is, the MPEG-2 to the RS coding wraps once more the RS coding) from the MPEG-2 bag of RS encoder 350 inputs.Backward compatibility parity generator 380 sends to trellis encoder 370 with the parity check that produces.Should be appreciated that,, then do not need to comprise generator 380 if do not need backward compatibility.
Bag, segment sync signal and field sync signal that MUX 390 comes multiplexing grid coding by the bag with segment sync signal and field sync signal insertion grid coding.The modulator (not shown) is carried out the VSB modulation to the bag that has inserted segment sync signal and field sync signal, modulation is wrapped be transformed to RF channel band signal to send this RF channel band signal.
Figure 11 illustrates the block diagram of the structure of digital broadcast transmitter according to another embodiment of the present invention.In this embodiment, MUX 420 directly receives Voice ﹠ Video input (need not the MUX by TS) behind the TS, and the structure identical operations of execution and Figure 10.In this case, MUX 420 is not added to the TS MUX that is used for SRS VSB behind the TS, but is considered to be used for the new TSMUX of SRS VSB.
Consistent with Figure 10, randomizer 430 transmits the flow data randomization to strengthen the utilization of the channel space of distributing with the MPEG-2 of input.SRS inserts unit 440 produces the specified sequence with the designated mode of arranging in advance between emission side and recipient SRS, and with the byte of padding in the byte of padding position of SRS replacement randomization data.RS encoder 450 by the bag data are carried out RS encode with the parity check of specified bytes add to by SRS insert bag that unit 440 exchanged byte of padding to correct because the error that channel produces.Interleaver 460 interweaves to having added from the packet of the parity check of RS encoder 450 output with designated mode.Trellis encoder 470 will be converted to data symbol from the data of interleaver 460 output, and the grid coding by 2/3 code check comes data symbol DO symbol is shone upon.
As shown, trellis encoder 470 is designated value (for example, being initialized as " 00 " state) in the value initialization that the starting point of SRS will be stored in its oneself the storage arrangement temporarily, and data are carried out grid coding.In addition, trellis encoder 470 is used for the value of initializes memory backward to 480 outputs of compatibility parity generator, the new parity check that reception is produced by backward compatibility parity generator 480, and replace with the new parity check that receives and to have parity check accordingly now.
The output of trellis encoder and next memory state are subjected to the influence of previous memory value.Just, if previous input changes, then will be used for initialized input and change.If with the parity check of the corresponding bag of initialization area in the initialization area front, then because the new parity check that produces, the input value that before had been used for the memory of initialization trellis encoder 470 is changed.In this case, can not carry out initialization, perhaps, use the initialization value of correcting to produce accurate parity check.Therefore, for the parity check that prevents the initialization bag in the front of initialization area, the maximum number of the byte of padding of use becomes 27.
Backward compatibility parity generator 480 is by using from the initialize memory value of trellis encoder 470 inputs, encode and produce parity check carry out RS from the MPEG-2 bag of RS encoder 450 input, and the parity check that produces is sent to trellis encoder 470.Yet being appreciated that of the present invention does not need generator 480 aspect all.
Bag, segment sync signal and field sync signal that MUX 490 comes multiplexing grid coding by the bag with segment sync signal and field sync signal insertion grid coding.The modulator (not shown) is carried out the VSB modulation to the bag that has inserted segment sync signal and field sync signal, and modulation wrapped is transformed to RF channel band signal and sends RF channel band signal.
Figure 12 is the diagrammatic sketch that illustrates according to the exemplary input type of the MPEG of each side of the present invention bag, thereby can operate SRS VSB effectively.312 MPEG bags are comprised in the VSB field.The bag that comprises for example PCR, OPCR, splicing counter, transmits the information of proprietary data length and self adaptation field extension length in 312 bags can be transfused at assigned address as shown in drawings.For example when 312 sections be unit when being divided with 52 sections, the position of Option Field can followingly be represented:
Program clock reference (PCR) (using 6 bytes): 52n+15, n=0;
Original program clock reference (OPCR) (using 6 bytes): 52n+15, n=1;
Self adaptation field extension length (using 2 bytes): 52n+15, n=2;
Transmit proprietary data length (using 5 bytes): 52n+15, n=3,4,5; With
Splicing counter (using 1 byte): 52n+19, n=0,1,2,3,4,5.
The formation of MPEG bag as shown in Figure 5 and the position of the bag of MPEG as shown in figure 12 can be revised to use SRS VSB effectively with various forms.
Figure 13 is the exemplary diagram that illustrates according to the structure of the bag that interweaves of the embodiment of the invention.Because compatible, for example the mpeg information of PCR should be received as it is, therefore, can not use it for initialization or SRS pattern.Therefore, use the transmission of not initialization trellis encoder 370 to flow the mpeg information of part, can reduce to lose by transmission.
As shown in figure 12, when PCR or OPCR used at position 52n+15,5 bytes in 6 bytes of PCR or OPCR were used in the empty part of not using known symbol, and this known symbol that causes a byte only (promptly, losing 4 symbols), and lose generation without any training.In addition, be less than in transmission under the situation of information of 5 bytes, known symbol do not take place lose.In Figure 12, splice_count is sent out at position 52n+19.The empty part of not using known symbol by as shown in figure 13 sends splice_count, and splice_count can be sent out under without any the situation of losing at known symbol.Have in use under the situation of MPEG bag of said structure, receiver will be used as training sequence except the zone of the SRS OPCR and the PCR zone, specifically, be (for example to be used for equalizer, equalizer 230) and/or the given value of forward error correction decoder (for example, decoder 240).
Below, the embodiment of the method for compatible operations SRS VSB when explaining after not having TS MUX.When the MPEG bag was transfused to data randomizer 330, randomizer 330 used the self adaptation field controlled flag of Fig. 3 to judge whether the self adaptation field exists.As shown, the self adaptation field controlled flag of Fig. 3 has the sign (00) of reservation, does not have the self adaptation field to have only the sign of load (01), has only the self adaptation field not have the sign (10) of load and the sign (11) of self adaptation field back subsequent load.If the self adaptation field exists, then data randomizer 330 uses sign as shown in Figure 4 to judge whether OPCR, splicing_point, transport_private_data and adaptation_field_exension exist.If even have a sign, then it is replaced and need not to carry out byte of padding by corresponding bag.
In this case, the trellis encoder 370 of Figure 10 and backward compatibility parity generator 380 are encoded and initialize memory and need not that training sequence is carried out RS with existing VSB processing mode pack processing again.In this processing, the bag that carries information does not change, thereby can send this bag without distortion.
Reflector can use reserved part to send this information by sending to receiver about the information of training regional change.In addition, receiver acts on equalizer and the given value of back to error correction by will as training sequence described information being used about the information of training the zone.
