Abstract

A communication system having programmable, addressable receivers that receive, store, process, and send digital and conventional video, audio and control signals for use in, among other things, a cable video network (9). Conventional audio and composite video and digital data signals are assembled into a single transmission by an automated production system. The transmission is delivered to the addressable receivers where the audio and video signals and some portion of the data may be selected and processed for re-transmission (114, 116, 118, 120, 98). The receivers may be addressed individually, in units or in groups for the purpose of receiving information on the basis of one or more pre-selected criteria.

Description

Transmitting of Multi-media Information and compartment system

Background of invention

The present invention relates to one and be used for audio frequency and composite video, data, Multimedia Programming and control signal are transferred to the system of long-range receiving terminal to distribute under the order of control signal. Audio frequency and video signal transmission are used for using immediately to local destination, and the registration of transmission or transmission next time is very ripe application program again, especially with the combination of the distribution of the TV programme plan of various TV networks and cable system on. The character that usage data is presented at generation on the video screen of color background or other vision signal backgrounds also is existing application program.

These application programs have combined with new technology and have been used to the beholder to produce to show as continuous programs, but are actually by the different local complex data streams of being permitted eurypalynous fragment or works that produce. For example, authorize the U.S. patent No.4 of Galumbeck, 725,886 and authorize the Patents U.S. patent No.4 of Galumbeck, 916,539 and No. 5,140,419 (quoting them as a reference at this) disclose a kind use novel hardware and software with in the restriction of normal tv signal specification with ordinary video and audio frequency program material and data and one receiver that is transferred in remote signaling processor or the system of control signal. Remote signaling processor or receiver receive whole signal transmission and process them so that data and ordinary video and sound signal can be used at the remote receiver place with a kind predetermined way under network control, especially for local cable television system.

Present technique can application program in any system that is used for distributed intelligence, be not limited to whether with information-related; Yet preferably transmission is by analyzing an existed system, and for example the application program of present technique is understood in the running of The Weather Channel (TWC). TWC is one and is used for distributing and sending meteorological relevant information, or the automatic system of " works " on wide zone.

The primary categories of current TWC information is local meteorological fragment, national meteorological segment and advertisement. All these are with multi-form and occur at different time, have produced the multiplicity of works. These works are different in complexity. For example, works may be the relatively simple text fields in bottom of screen; A help of transmitting via satellite remote sensing is shown by the nationwide meteorology that photograph meteorologist (OCM) provides; Or offer cable headend and managing herein with data mode and cover the multiframe radarmap sequence coverage that is shown to local beholder on one geographical map, for example, the movement of snowstorm system.

As shown in Figure 1, in any time of TWC program day, must prepare two types information at TWC central apparatus place and it is transferred to wired company to show the TWC program: the transmission 10 in the whole nation, all wire users can be watched it; Local transmission 16 can only just can be watched by the spectators in corresponding wired market of selecting. In the Atlanta, traditional audio/visual (A/V) signal of Georgia transmits whole nation transmission 10 conduct origins in TWC general headquarters 12. Same signal carries (subcarrier is passed through in transmission) local transmission 16, it is as local weather information, advertising message and the transfer of data of order that instructs cable headend be to cable operator, or the own program that receiving element 14 is periodically produced it send by TWC with data. Receiving element 14 transmits transmission 10 transmission of country by the time slot just when it; In any case in the right season is local transmission 16, the figure of local-generation and program (generation and data are received TWC) are inserted into from receiving element 14.

Be used for local meteorological data general T WC compartment system and can be thought to be the source data and be sent to receiving element 14 where of the single channel client/server architecture as one by one. Then receiving element 14 collects data for showing (local transmission 16) or passing A/V signal (transmission 10 of country), depends on that instruction send by TWC general headquarters 12.

As shown in Figure 2, three sources of information are drawn transmission 10 and the local transmission 16 of country on creating: meteorological data 18, merge database 20, and program/scheduling 22. Drawn thereon to form the final program of being seen by cable user by many subsystems in these sources.

The source of first information by the accumulation of data and figure for from the weather prognosis of external source be collected in system and claim meteorology system 24. As shown in Figure 3. Not all information all is transmitted from meteorology system 24. Meteorology system 24 filter information are as being shown by the local data base that claims Department of Meteorology's togetherness interest form.

Meteorological data 18 is collected by the Meteorological Services (NWS) 26 of country. NWS 26 has meteorological collection installation to run through the U.S. on the airport, military foundation, and other selected position. These install hour proper their predetermined tabulation time of form to each, wherein are different from from six and depend on requirement to twenty four hours. Some are installed by automation, meeting youngster other be 10. Artificial, and information be collected with existing or by machine or by the member in the position. Third party supplier 28 propagates that information and arrives TWC in tabular and narration form. Tabular data 30 are by the existing meteorological condition in fixed-length record and regular length territory or special use. Character field is typically left-is pleaded and or maximum length or empty-stop. Numeric field both one of binary or right-aligned and front guide space. For example:

The position

Temperature

Describe

Etc.

ATL

Sun-drenched

Etc.

This information arrive at any time and typically inclusion information such as temperature, the wind speed degree, moist and other meteorology is special position for information about.

Other information provides to be comprised by meteorology tabulation agency and meteorologically reports to the police and advise, wherein be provided as narration data 32 at free-form text as the variable-length string. Radar Figure 34 is provided by the ocean of country and is become synthetic and sent the territory each 15 minutes in operation-length coding form and quilt with management atmosphere (NOAA). The system 36 of backup is provided result data and can not be received TWC.

Referring to Figure 2, the correct routing information database 20 stores the combined position and cables address Operator (or cable operator in the computer-aided software engineering equipment where there may be S multiple mounting head end). Merge the information contained in the database 20 meteorological data to be transmitted to the cable Operators. Much of the information focuses on mediation cable operator's postal code, and their geographical longitude And latitude. This allows the proper position by the address information, so that, for example, weather information are associated to Miami will be directed Miami receiving unit. This also allows the replication of the directional characteristics and to be Find locations. Features appear in the ad on the bulletin board program ends. They show the name and address of the State the local operator unit. For example, Michelin tiredness can form local advertising programs Businessman's name. Copy points can contain different advertising programs for the country's different regions. ...

Figure 4 illustrates how the information stated in this program directed into the product engine 38. Programs Project information system to begin commercial sales and program sponsors. Sales proposal system 40 identifies and tracks potential consumers. Meanwhile, the sale is made plans and assurance and contracting. Wide Report shows traffic contracting system 42 is participated by the department members. Traffic classification system 42 contract Conditions. Ad scheduling is then transferred to the traffic system 42. Traffic system 42 also packs Including program scheduling for the TWC and, as such, the first draft has been developed for the program day there. Furthermore, Traffic system 42 is the main scheduler, where the days of handwritten by mail order program, including the widely Reporting and scheduling for the country's 10 and 16 local transmission. Advertising program is loaded into the video tape Tap into the large turntable cassette memory 44, such as Odetics. Storage and broadcast advertising programs Place according to the schedule registration. ...

Using the signal receiving unit 14 to generate the information carried by the viewer to see the display and transfer Audio and video. To accomplish this task, the receiving unit 14 receives the transmission 10 and the command state Stream, advertising and meteorological data. When the receiver unit 14 is guided transfer - the mass transfer through the national Transmission 10, which direct video signal, i.e. the transmission state, the operator from the TWC to the cable network Card, where it is seen by the audience. When the guide shows local transmission 16, a receiving unit IO merger Data and produce graphics on the board local transport 16. Transmission - transmission through the transmission 10 countries Was then interrupted and the local transmission 16 is the card to the cable operator, where it is seen by the Spectators. Receiving unit 14 can construct a custom graphic handwritten by the runtime language. It can perform Color shift and simple radar animation. The end result is that the cable users receive a printing block For

There are two lines of communication in product engine 38 and the host 52. First, the data communication line 58 products in the host 52 and the engine 38. Current-mentioned, the product production process engine 38 day Scheduling in its final form. Data line 58 forms and send events to ensure that

38 and 52 are the same steps host. The second form of communication Take Line. This is a binary Exchange (5 volts = In, -5 volts = OFF) that instruct hosts 52 starts the next event.

Typically, local weather is transmitted several times each hour; Anyway, weather alarm or The reports can be scheduled remotely in the ad-hoc approach. Therefore, TWC because the system must be able to answer This. In order to show the product requirements, the receiving unit 14 typically respond to at least three commands: cycling , And load and run. And the lowest priority task is cyclic command, where every little run legitimate And send all the configuration data when needed and then - initialize the receiving unit 14. The command set cycle is thought Updates receiving unit 14 that has lost power or replaced. Loop command set is important because it is not The current receiving unit 14 has a permanent memory capacity of any valid number. Only memory Providing random access memory containing (RAM), to support the battery power. If the battery fails, the configuration information Be lost. ...

After the load command set has been completed, run the command set is sent. This causes the receiving unit 14 countries cut off the transmission 10 and the start of local transmission 16. The three components put run command are: Biography Sensors, advertising programs and features. Sensor assembly instruction receiving unit 14 that there are those who feel meteorological Equipment belonging to read those devices. Advertising program component allows the receiving unit 14 wide running locally Reporting programs. Run command on the receiver, the signal receiving unit 14 local video equipment operation and Close the national transmission 10. Feature command guidance receiving unit 14 outputs via text or post-production In national advertising programs, thereby advertising local exports. ...

In particular, bandwidth availability, which can limit the amount of information can be transmitted different receive a single Million. Although compression technology has great significance to expand the amount of information that can be transmitted through to the channel, If you need more information on consumer requests and increased complexity of multimedia products have led to even greater An answer to simply increase the number of channels to transmit information over the past often; Anyway, fast expansion in The number of the content provider has limited the availability of additional channels (apart from increasing the channel exist outside flower Fee). This problem affects not only the traditional communication channels, such as satellite transmission, and more recently available With the channel, such as the Internet. Therefore, it is desirable to limit the bandwidth required to transmit To put the information provided by the system allows for the transmission of such information in its different forms, namely, simulation and Digital video and audio, data, etc., to maximize the use of available channels and thus the through-out. ...

Hierarchical addressing system as taught in Galumbeck patents can limit the flexibility of the product These discrete areas cloth. This is because the current plan calls for that separated each received message is sent Unless the message receiving unit receives all common unit to a hierarchical structure within the column. For example, a single Messages can not be sent only receiving unit in Miami and Los Angeles unless it is required that all its His reception unit within the same column in the same display that message. If the message is aimed at Mya Dense and Los Angeles, two separate message must be sent. Because of limited availability of bandwidth and transmission channel Channel, the message is sent to the total number of cycles can be limited, the manufacturing process it is often difficult or not Send a single message to a receiving unit discrete. ...

Nevertheless, it can be desirable to send a message reception unit based on a single non- Basis - layered standards. The current class structure based on geographical boundaries, which meet the needs Display meteorological data; Anyway, other criteria for publishing information that can be imagined. For example, It can be desirable to establish the distribution of the target demographic for the advertising purposes on the basis of , For example, a high position and the size or retired male 18-24, and so on. Therefore, it is to make Who want to provide systems to address a single message sent to multiple receiving unit in a non - hierarchical group Basis without necessarily combined with other, non-desired receiver unit. ...

Apparently the current system separate transmission and data transmission. Data transmission is disposed of by the product Server / main / receive unit system ("Command Data System") a while transmission is disposed of by the production Product system. Product engine 38 so that the two pairs of such signals are displayed in order to create the final product viewer. It May be desirable to provide A / V data which can be displayed on the local level than the country; In any case, the current receiver unit does not have records of such large data capacity and repeat. In addition. Command data system energy production and transmission of data. Meanwhile, the product of the transmission system to the number of addresses Data. Therefore it is desirable to provide a transmission system which enables peer transport address through Command data transmission system and is transmitted through the local production system of the receiving unit to the recording ...

Command data system includes multiple hardware and software elements. Each such element must pass In order to ensure effective communication system performance. When the system complexity increases, however, it becomes progressively difficult The intact burial - module communication, in particular, as a special element to be upgraded or replaced. Accordingly, It is desirable to provide a standardized interface allows data to be transmitted in the element where located and Allow proper verification proved to be the wrong use.

The current system relies on production systems and meteorology system provides most of the products such as weather warnings Reports and data formatting. This requires a lot of data is repeatedly transmitted. It is desirable to mention For the receiving unit and the full implementation of many intelligent data formatting, such as mapping data in Figure - like table Up, and other advanced features such as the identity of significant weather.

The current receiver unit briefing papers and pretend to be built the same time, these systems leave empty Most programs for hours, and then force them into the use of high state for the local meteorological Transmission. Because the current receiver unit to "build and play" in parallel, it is limited by the horsepower (As for its graphical complexity) and using the most recent data from the requirement. "Build and Play" is that these Requirements of the system because of lack of permanent memory limited their ability to build and store Play Files. Therefore, it is desirable to provide systems that can store and process data and choose to restore That data is in a sense that more efficient and effective use of available resources, such as processor Time, storage space, and so ...

The present invention relates to systems and capacity to provide these required function.

Addressing scheme according to the present invention allows for more flexibility in the program receive a single unit. Information May be, for example, separated in a single receiving unit of the following methods: each receiving unit has Interest table which can be, for example, two tables, one of the first domain to endure Thus, the receiving Unit in Cobb County, Georgia might name "state" and the field value of the "Georgia." filename of the "county" and the domain value "Cobb," and so on, for the selection of any kind of standard that May be required. Standards need not be geography. For example, a criterion may be the domain name of the " Demographic area i "which represents regional and high number of retirees. Field value" l "or "O" indicates that the receiving unit that is or is not a member of the "demographic area i." Therefore, Completely different in different regions of the receiving unit can be "interested" in the similar information as Factor differs from geography. ...

This allows the system differs from conventional systems of at least the following methods. Use of the current system Layer addressing plan. In other words, but the data can be delivered once the expansion of a single regional area. Therefore, the data receiving unit can be sent or all of the city of Atlanta receiving unit Cobb County, Georgia, which can include receiving unit in the city of Atlanta or all of the connected It can not be closed unit, in any case, send a single message is received by the reception unit in the two sub- Atlanta and a receiving unit in the San Francisco without the same message is received by the reception unit of all The same utility.

It can be desirable, in any case, a message to the address receiving unit without separate With a very small geographical area did not capture the public areas are located those two pounds. For example, it can be The immediate objectives desirable demographic characteristics of the example programs such as the elderly or retired in Phoenix, City, Miami and Los Angeles. Anyway so, and that the current system will require Three separate message is sent, even if the same data is sent to the access by the address that are particularly Receiving unit does not include mediation utilities addressing system of the invention allows a single message to be target number of public Many different positions to receive the output capturing unwanted elements. Therefore, addressing the table as a piece Data in the receiving unit and the characteristics of the target demographic can be completed, including those marked by a simple Associate at the receiving unit 'interest form and then addressing information accordingly. ...

The system according to the invention have the ability to transmit voice over a local audio signal that is described in For local transport. Also available is a local video download. The words, instead of simply direct Data to the characteristics of regional, audio and video can also be provided to select a different area. To do this, Wei Star part of transponder systems were allowed to take and modulation narrow addition, one or more Sub - carriers. Alternative one more transponder unit can be used, increasing the total available bandwidth.

To do this, Wei Star part of transponder systems were allowed to take and modulation narrow addition, one or more Sub - carriers. Alternative one more transponder unit can be used, increasing the total available bandwidth....

According to invention, voiceover and video information can be produced in the studio, which can be bound By the automation system, the memory system and the periodic transmission of forward by automatic control systems form Where it is the transmission type, however, not the address. Instead, addressing information is sent from the master, Wherein the command receiving unit, for example, "to see and record a digital channel information for the next two points Minutes. "MDS makes automation peer guidance system and the main message that the receiving unit when to start recording An appropriate time so that data is not failed.

Thus, video and voiceover aimed at particular places, such as Miami, you can prepare. Main Machine and then send the message address Miami receiving unit to tell it to see the first line of digital transmission and storage The next two minutes of data that is supplied in the transmission through. Meanwhile, the automated system start sending Video data. MDS makes these two devices that peer timing was made. MDS also know to avoid contact Touch. For example, if the receiving unit can not record the video data and video data simultaneously, MDS known Road at what times the video being played by a special receiver unit and avoid the data sent to that particular Receiving unit. MDS realize what each receiver unit is doing at any time and select Features Data from the transmission queue is delivered in a way that avoided conflict with one function while optimizing the Use and delivery capacity of the media. Alternative embodiments include recording data in digital form and providing it And address. Another embodiment comprises front digitization and video compression data it receives a single supply Million viewers in real time for instant replay. ...

In addition, MDS use allows the transmission channel throughput is maximized. The sort data Sent in the appropriate times and logo "downtime" eugenics which low-level data transmission, the transmission channel can Is kept "full" always on. This method allows the additional front channel bandwidth is the bandwidth used as much as possible Must be guaranteed. The words, rather than hard scheduled transmission times, a lot of information not actual - Based or high priority may be delayed until the bandwidth becomes available. Only additional bandwidth becomes necessary When the entire channel is spending such a long period of time by making transmission delay impractical. This has the result of an argument A lot of attention to increasing the total transmission capacity through a period of time. ...

To effectively manage the data stream, however, MDS must know the status of each received component It is where the control. Where two way link is available, such as via the Internet, MDS can Simply query each receiving unit to determine its state (e.g., it is necessary to avoid sending data Recording receiving unit only when the component is available when the link is a method, such as satellite transmission, MDS must remain "image file" That is all the information that has already been delivered to the records of each Receiving unit. So, MDS that each part of the remaining memory capacity and its replay tone Degrees, allowing data transmission arranged in the maximum efficiency. ...

One limitation of the system is that the satellite link is located conveniently transmission and receiving unit only supports a A convenient method of communication from the transmission to the receiving unit. If this is the only link available, it will be Possible to the receiving unit and a behavior monitoring process diagnostics to determine whether information is properly handed Send. Therefore, additional ports receiving unit dressed for the communications, such as the RS232 port for the modem Access and TCP / IP port for the Internet access. So, the operator can reach each receiving Unit transmission through these other methods and has two communication methods that allow the diagnosis, monitoring procedures And other tasks. Further, the reception unit may receive the transmission via the Internet, but the clothing Services transmitted via direct modem link. ...

Similarly, each element of the system include complex software components. Each such component must Effective communication and other so that the system can function properly. The system according to the present invention to provide software "Plug" which is located in the standard interface is the software component. These interfaces allow standardized communication protocols Meeting in components. In addition, features such as the nuclear capacity that error, which can be plugged into.

In the system according to the present invention, in order to form special information only relates to the data determined Product is actually transmitted. For example, the radar map, the basic information display area is, for example, U.S. topographical maps and overlays colorful geographical boundaries, are stored by the receiving unit. Append Colorful cover actual radar data information is sent via the system. Receiving unit is given the information known It has the latitude and longitude position. The receiving unit corresponding to a part of the selection diagram to its position And pre-show on the outer regions and only so much part of the graph and its corresponding radar data.

A receiving unit according to the present invention may be artificially intelligent manufacturing procedure for scanning meteorological data The plan basically up there. For example, the receiving unit may analyze the data in the past often construct Ray Up images and, if a criterion is met, such as high luminance and other factors fall agreements Force, the receiving unit may issue ferocious weather alerts, regardless of whether this National Weather Service Doing it.

Similarly, the receiving unit according to the invention may intelligently "Select" product. For example, Receiving unit in the landlocked region knows Show Yearbook products instead tidal products. Similarly, A receiving unit according to the present invention, analysis of the input data and, building on the basis of the selected criteria, to generate New product which highlights aspects of the data valid. For example, the input receiving unit may analyze the radar Data identifies areas of high brightness and pixel density which will indicate the ferocious weather. Receiving unit You can then generate meteorological products pretending to advise the area.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Figure 7-8 schematically show multimedia transmission and distribution system 9 of the present invention and consistent Principles. They will not be observed by way of limitation, but rather is a characteristic method disclosed in detail Implemented inventions. Although in this embodiment of the disclosed system is directed to transmission and the distribution of meteorological Off multimedia programs, distribution information invention can be used in many different forms, including, but not Limited to sports, education, entertainment, business and commercial programs, data and other information. Send data types

Data type branching on important functions and processing capacity of the hardware complexity, transmission and Ads. Data types can be defined based on three criteria established: loss, a large like Small, and the actual-Timeliness.

Reference degree in which data loss degradation (e.g., due to compression) would be 9 by the system tolerance. No Loss of data can not tolerate any data degradation. Consumption data can be tolerant degradation. File a A-like size is usually counted in megabytes and are related because the catheter ("control") transmission through Over which the data is being transmitted often limited. Thus, large files may require dedicated processing test Consideration. Actual timeliness reference data is urgent.

Therefore, the ferocious weather warning emergency, however the use of scarce upgrade software utility can not be tight Anxious.

Data can be entered in addition to four categories: A class data

Lossless binary: usually below IMB. This type of data normally contains the command string table Format, and the narrative meteorological data, and relatively small bitmaps such as national weather map. It is through Acceptable Cycle data is often lost in the compression and processing ofthis data. Class B Data

No single variable frame loss: large files, such as bitmaps and procedures. Again, it is generally acceptable to the number of cycles It was lost in the compression and processing this data. Class C data

Digital audio and video consumption: large audio and video clip. These files requires a lot of storage space and a positive Often ground must be compressed, which can cause data to be changed and the acceptable range may be downgraded Around in the process. Class D data Analog transmission.

These data types reflect the increased flow of data receiving unit 14. This requires additional space and flow Transmission line. Completion required tube size, current bandwidth can be manipulated to allow more data transmitted without Moving the current transfer accepted. Cut end signal processor to the bandwidth and transmit compressed Data transmission via two ends. Figure 6 Example stated this one kind of strategy. Meanwhile, when describing more More fully below, the dynamic scheduling system can be employed to maximize the use of the tube. Other methods Providing increased transmission capacity can be employed as appropriate. Data generation

Sources of information to be transmitted is the country's transmission and distribution of 60 meteorological (met through transmission system 66), and the scheduler 64. National transmission 60 runs continuously, it is alive or previous - Health Production. This is necessary because not all cable operators are receiving unit 14 with the local meteorological biography Lose. Meanwhile, some viewers have their own satellite dish or direct broadcasting system and do not receive the Transmitted. In these computer-aided software engineering, cable operators and viewers continue to observe the national Transfer 60 days throughout the program.

System 9 treat all program segments, including advertising, when the product. Product Development System 62 provides From these machines in which the product is created and the introduction of the system. Examples of products that may be displayed include: Radar, present conditions, 36 - hour forecast, local observation, where the trend, annual, expanded Trends, features, copy points, custom product. Of course, because the system can be used also distributed non - Meteorological information, many products can be imagined. For example, the channel can be displayed sport game statistics, scoring, And so on.

Traffic system 64 provides a template for the product and the advertising schedule for the show days. This template is handed To send as a static document and is produced by a real-time source real-time data 78.

Meteorological observation system 66 reaches from the meet and be delivered to them in a production server 76 Where the intake address (transmitted through the data providing by the target), into the data, and forward the host 52 and voiceover support system (VOSS) 77.

Product supplied data within the server 76 receiving unit (transmission through 10 basic "T" even Connection or via its own NIC) VOSS77 delivery systems and methods to allow nine graphic presentation And voice are the same steps that have been delivered, and this technology allows the operator to produce and deliver market-specific Audio presentation to predict air legitimate local transmission 16.

To record audio transmission, in - Radio meteorologists (ORM) requires equipment to record, store, And transferred audio. This is performed by the digital audio sampling device 104 (essentially a computerized record Radio), such Enco audio system. Audio mixing device 104 allows;

Records from many sources; and memory compression, playback, and audio transfer file. Equipment 104 used to record and playback sound files. Equipment in the

sound booth

104 and 102 are used to record Previous - observe sound files. Device 104 is used to replay the sound file into the air.

ORM requirements met from the local meteorological information system 66. VOSS77 supply this information ORM in easy - access method that the data can be read into the device 104. Sound booth 102 Used to record the local transmission 16and provide another source of information. They were the supply of equipment to Transmission and recording of meteorological information to provide local meteorologists. Workstations in the sound booth 102 have similar The same function as the prep station (not shown).

Prep station allows the user to provide a user to observe any of the products to meet the system by the system 9 66. Prep station should be responsible for the preparation handwritten server 76 is provided to the product. Handwritten Ming Indeed mention components and the duration of the selected local playlist. Once the playlist AUTHENTIC Prepare, prep station download handwriting to the production server 76. Narrative text editing occurs in all met System 66. Meet system 66 supplies data to the production server 76. User user voice Kiosks have the ability to access the narrative, tabular, graphical information from the meet & portrait system 66.

VOSS77 applies to the address and data is received continuously dedicated market. When the sound booth 102 Send requests, VOSS77 confirmation requests and run the file. The output 77 is then VOSS supervision Programmed by the user in the sound booth 102 users. MDS68 supervision procedures for the automation playlist Playlist scheduling transmission dedicated local markets. Automatic control and management system 72 playlist and trigger device 104 and the host 52 for the domain record and replay. The host 52 is a time That engine control scheduling and product performance are displayed at the receiving unit 14.

Merge database 20 connected directly to the production server 76. Merge database 20 remain intact The combined information of the product throughout the server's database. This allows all other applications to view Observe this as a logical database.

VOSS5 months 77 days the program is transmitted through the graphical user interface of the following methods:

Database targets (playlists, configuration, and interested tables, compiled Address table, the table format meteorological data, meteorological data narrative, graphics, etc.) in a buffer before being commissioned Temporarily them to the database. School inspection system to see if the target is in use (present reference). If Goal is to use, it is marked as "locked" and wait until the working version of the buffer This is marked as "solved the lock." When it becomes "locked solved," the target is removed from the data Libraries and new versions are stored. Digital video object is not transmitted - transmitted via the video is stored in the Disks or compressed or uncompressed format. Version - control need not exist, but the target Not marked as complete until all structures have been received from the host. ...

If a serious error occurs in the receiving unit 14, which will, if the modem may enter the Demodulator, the operator sends a notification message. Two password database is maintained by the receiving unit connected using Mouth. One is the "privileged" Password for the operator to allow full access to all database elements. Second, the " No right of "Password, is for the merger to allow restricted access a single function, such as crawling generation and Scheduling. That means a data element from the string into the stream. Once the stream data is ramed into 512 byte segment, the assignment message number and the number of segments and transfer to the socket 138 is transmitted. Once the transfer is over On the receiving side is the opposite way. Socket 138A received frame which is transmitted to the packetizer 136A Where reload.

Producr servers and hosts: as shown in Figure Il transmitted via 11B, the data is received Received from the production server 76. Data stream starting at ingesters 140. Entry point into the system 9 Is drinkers 140. Ingesters 140 provides an interface to the outside world for the production of all types of mailing Products, converting them from their raw format into a common product mailed structure. Figure 18 Examples of information stated streaming through ingesters140.

Ingesters140 import data and construct a packet format in advance, such as product development Management System (PDMS) format. PDMS pack contains its own data, and other information about the Such as address, data length, address length, wherein the information system is the POST data.

PDMS to the product package and then mailed to the module 142. Data is here restrained different forms, Each table dedicated to one or more modules to import data, such as the host 52, the Internet and set up Equipment, or other system 192 that may be interested in the data.

When the reference 11B, and 19, the product mail module 142 provides input into the dedicated queue From the product of multiple source data. Such as the U.S., meteorologists from the bottom of the tabular data can be 170, Narrative 172 or Figure 174 documentary form. Each product intake by 140 to plug into the general The product must then be mailed structure POST data sheets products that mail queue 184 which is Specific data requester, such as the main 146, the Internet 192, and so on

Sources indicate that the queue in which the product will be POST. Priority tag indicates the packet priority. These Final package POST priority queuing. Address contains the entire select statement and receiving address unit 14 Five of the data is the target. Address length is the length of the address data. Data includes the number of products Data. This could be something II, the actual data or a pointer or external data remotely. After Blocks for shared memory access signal 182, the packet is queued POST 184.

Drinkers task 176 must accumulate respectable total data queue 184 to the total number of tracks It is in the queue 184 at any one time.

Before the package 3 and its data can be queued POST 184, 176 to ingestion by the task Make access to the image file 154 and calculate the amount of space required by the data. Some of the data in the next Receiving unit 14 is the former - and therefore did not allocate the total disk space. Since it is so results Marked the beginning EFFECT-NOSIZE. If the data must be calculated is the beginning nag EFFECT-SIZE. If the calculation is made and indicates that the data is not very appropriate error receiving unit 14 letter Interest must be POST and packet discard.

Queue 184 is the standard template library Multimap level. This level was chosen as the following corollary: It allows both the key and the data is stored. It allows the orderly insertion without storage It allows orderly deleted without storage Once the packet is POST, the higher the priority package "floating" top 184 since the multi-queue - map is Key priority.

Architecture very similar to the requestor side. Product Mailing requester is assigned the task 186 Main requestor process 146. They are connected by a software plug-132D mail module where products 142 act as a server and acts as the main module 146 customers. When shown in Fig. IIB-C, differential is two fold. First, the main module 146 sends the message that it is ready when it is ready to produce Commodities mail requester task 186 to the first packet is disconnected queue. Second, just a product mailed Requester task 186 runs each queue 190, unlike drinkers among multiple office tasks 176 Service can POST a queue 184.

Product mail requester task 186 also has the responsibility of mailing records to the mirror file 154. After Packet is transmitted in the main module 146 which then wrote to the image file 154. Elements necessary for the mirror File 154 is clearly documented in Figure 16-16A.

Product mail module 142 adjustment data three types: inner storage (I_STORE), appearance Stored on (E_STORE), and remote storage (R_STORE). Because there is the potential to be very Large amounts of data, the information is contained in a chip package is PDMS I_STORE / E_STORE indicator. If the packet data is relatively small label I_STORE, where a part of me that that data In fact the data that is sent to the host 52 and the final pre-receiving unit 14. If the packet is very large, It is stored in the numeral E_STORE and the external server. E indicates that the packet pointer refers only Where the data can be shown on the search. Including stored data, or I_STORE data transmission is shifted Transmission through a single package. Since the data is restricted 2kBytes I_STORE it is proposed a package. ...

Files are POST absolute filename in the directory by the name of the queue created on the basis of 182. Naming convention is: [Current target] / queue [queues] / [filename] For example, the file specified 091502.96t. To be written to a queue 182: / queue1/091502.96t.

Including the stored data is contained in the mail within the generic structure of products. This usually is released The data that the message size can be adjusted by the structure. In the cache memory before it is usually the number of text According to the structure will be limited to ensure that not only record total to eat extreme memory to disk. Present Limits of the system, including data stored 10,000.

Exception Handling If the queue contains too much data for the system disposal, any product mail requester Service 186 purification of all non - priority 1 Data from the queue. Determination of how much is too much data is Structure, but when the threshold is met in addition to all the data first be purified from a file I data. Present 20 kilobytes is the maximum data length I_STORE. If the port is lost, the port will fall 10 second cycle when the port is connected looking down. Any port drop will be an error log report Remember.

Product mail module 142 provides more than just common data conversion. It provides a standard Staged area for all commands and data that must be transmitted through the system 9 transmission to the receiving unit 14 or from a single to another. This is the reason that the products can contain many place - products, all Which must be moving in the degree of change in the system 9 via different communication and transmission lines. In the former Xu Not even need to be multi-product production and transmission. Product mail module 142 provides a central storage Room or central control area for the item to be manipulated on the way to their ultimate goal.

PDMS master module 146 to pick up mail from the product package module 142 and break it into two Package. The first address and the second packet is a data packet. This system allows the receiving unit 14 operate more Active. When the message reaches the receiving unit 14 is only the first packet to be read. If the address indicates that data Is that the receiving unit, which then stores that data in revenue that following address. If the address of that orientation Receiving unit, it ignores all data until the next address packet arrives. This is important because it saves The time that will be required to transmit to the receiving unit via the data analysis. Good words, the receiving unit only Can be disaggregated, disassemble or address packet determines whether data decompression directed at it, it does not require decompression or re- Loading any data, which may in time consumption. Including the stored data is contained in the less common Product mailed structure. This is usually the size of the data that the lifting body can be adjusted by the structure. In which it is Cache memory before the usual text data will be limited to ensure that the structure totaled only remember Recorded eating extreme memory to disk. Now the system is restricted to the inner data stored 10,000. Exception Handling If the queue contains too much data for the system disposal, product mailed requester task 186 purify all non - priority 1 data from the queue. Determination of how much is too much data is structured, but this met when the threshold is in addition to all of the data gifted I have been purified from the first data file. Now 20 kilobytes I_STORE data length is the maximum. If the port is lost, the port will fall into the 10 second cycle looking for connections when the port is down. Any port decreased error report will be registered. Product mail module 142 provides more than just data Common conversion. It provides a standard staged area for all commands and data that must be transmitted Biography Transmission to the receiving unit 9 through the system 14 or from a single to another. This is the reason that the products can be To include the many instead of - products, all of which must be moving in the degree of change in the system 9 and biography Sent via different communication lines. Before many products being produced not even need to send. Product Mail module 142 provides a central storage room or central control area for the item to be manipulated to their The ultimate goal of the road. PDMS master module 146 to pick up mail from the product package module 142 and the Breaking it into two packages. The first address and the second packet is a data packet. This system allows the receiving unit 14 operations more effective. When the message reaches the receiving unit 14 is only the first packet to be read. If the ground Address indicates that the data is that the receiving unit, which then stores that data in revenue that following address. If A receiving unit that addresses orientation, it ignores all data packet arrives until the next address. This is important Because it saves time that would be required for the analysis of the receiving unit via the data transmission. In good condition Words, the receiving unit can only be disaggregated, disassemble or address packet determines whether data decompression directed at it, it No decompression or reinstall any data, which can be time consumption. 199. When the reference Figure 11C and 20, the main requester module 146 requests data from the product by post And processes into the command module 142 package is transferred to the queue 148 is more dry extent to preach Lose. ...

Receive news main requester 146 to handle. Since it is a method of handling this message compression Data, if necessary, and the destruction of large blocks of data into the command message. 202 Main requestor task 194 assignment request data from its mail queue i84 model in the product Block 142 which is supplied to transfer it through PDMS structure. Using two workers requestor task 194 For the area in memory that can be loaded one while the other one was discharged. The first request Those tasks checksum 'A / B' mark 196 to determine which queue 190 is open and begin large number Data and load it into that queue 190.

In order to understand the process of bulk, command messages are examples stated in Figure 11D. In general, any consumer Interest was rushed into four command layer 198, the address layer 200, the data layer 202, and an optional file level 204. Any message always contains the address 200 and data 202 layers. Also if the file downloaded in It can be attached to be executed at the end. First, the command layer 198 is written and LayerFlag elements are open Initial 0. Address 200 is then rushed Lot No. 512-byte chunks and set LayerFlag I instructed the address level. Next data to be evaluated as the length. If it is more than 5k bytes, which for the first A compressed chunk into 512 byte segment. Again the segment number is incremented properly and LayerFlag Is to start 2. If the file transfer is called the main transmission requestor 146 "RF" message is loaded in the PDMS structure data items. The following table defines the structure of the command packet. ...

Transfer the message queue server task 206 by a large chunk of the queue server module 148 which depend Times populates it into the queue based on a priority basis.

Once the PDMS package properly format it to the queue server 148 which has some of the queue, a One each for the data level. Queue Server 148 acts as a basic priority for the staged process data for Prepare transmitted to the receiver unit 14. Figure 11E example stated function server queue 148.

Main module 146 build customer relationships through software plug-132E transmission and queuing server 148 Where the main line of the request the requester service 208 previous - process data chunks from the main request By 146. Main module 146 to provide information as a series of command packet is loaded into the queue.

There are three types of queues: Y-queue 156, C-queue 160, and one or more priority Queue 15S. C-160 Command Queuing queue. Messages in the C-queue 160 out immediately after To accept it. PRIORITY C number - 160 is a queue. Y-queue 156 is a circular queue. Y- The lowest priority queue contains 156 data but here is the most critical data loss involved. Documents whose integrity must be guaranteed to be places in the Y-queue 156 in order to be so many times transmission Ensure eITor freely transferable. Y-queue 156 priority number is two hundred fifty-six. Priority queue 158 The number of received messages preferred structure. When the structure of the system, the number of priority queue 158 can clearly remember Uploaded. Specify the number of priority queue 158 check for error correction only. Since entering any messages queued Server 148 that has unallocated priority queue, the queue after the nuclear production certificate number, since the There is a dynamic allocation for it. Command module 150 provides command and data transmission. This is only its Since this function is so important function and delay. ...

When the reference Figure 11E and 21, the command module 150 requests data from the queue server 148 And transmit that data to the De-queue module 163 in the receiving unit 14. Queue Server 148 for To the data in order to establish the basis of an algorithm that severely stressed that high priority data is cleared from the Queue 156, 158. 160 and a sample may be fast. When discussing the previous one area, the command can Been reported in any intake system originated by 176. Problem that happens is forced by the processing delay. A Some commands require coordination at the end of the delay is less than a second broadcast products unwelcome. So life Make the task scheduler 216 is assigned so that real-time command register 152 can be made the fastest and most Efficient way possible. ...

Product data comes in three forms created on a priority basis. The first product is a gas source data Alarm and command data like that must be devoted to the receiving unit 14 now - this is the number of C-queue 160 Data. The second data format is the standard meteorological data which, although perishable, can reach the receiver Unit 14 in a reasonable amount of time after the C-160 data has been sent to the queue. This is the preferred team 158 columns of data. The final form of data that must reach the receiving unit 14 is a process, product, and Configuration information, i.e., Y-data queue 156.

There receiving unit positioned on the product image file 154 mail module 142. This file records All that is sent every single receiver unit 14. It then creates all that is registered Resident in the receiving unit 14. This is necessary because the transmission system is an open loop system to know whether the number of allowed Once the data transfer is actually received by the receiving unit 14. Thus, the receiving unit if necessary, mirror 154 as the file system knows how to allow all the received hard drive assembly 14 and the transmission, Delete or erase command to remove stale data so that new data can be transmitted.

Reception unit: Figure 11G-H when the reference and 22-26, the receiving unit 14 has four modules de-Team Column module 163, the command application module (CAM) 162, presentation application layer (PAL) 164 And the hardware abstraction layer (HAL) 166.

When reference to Fig 11G, de-queue module 163 is the entry point for the system to enter the receiving unit 14. It handles reception, interpretation, compilation and transfer packets to and from the command module 150 and CAM 162.

Data messages are rushed into the command packet and store in the queue server 148; packet is stored in a single Message consists of two areas. Before the area is the address area and the rear area is the data area. Each district is split further into 512-byte structure. Since the command module 152 can be removed from the package and the message number of different teams Column 148 it is possible for the package to be inserted into the paper. De-queue module 163 therefore perform two tasks first One which determines the address of the receiving unit 14 and then reinstall the package into the message if they were special targets Point receiving unit 14.

Open the command module 150 customer relationships through software plug 132G transmission and de-queue service Service 163. Top of the message to be reloaded on the disk queuing and evaluated as true by a lookup table in the interest in moving State information zone file 220. If the message to the particular receiving unit 14 then de- Queue module 163 continues to build the message from the input packet. If the message features aimed at receiving Unit 14, any acknowledged packet is discarded.

When the message is completed they are transferred to CAM162 after transmission through software plug-132H Is converted into data packets, when for example stated in the table below. Relations in CAM162 and de- Queue 163 is of a "priority request." First, CAM162 instructions to de-queue mode Block 163 it is ready to do when ready to receive any messages sent by a string. This string can be of two types Ready Type. The first is the "RAI which means 'to prepare annoyance news.' This indicates that CAM162 Not busy with other tasks. Another possibility is labeled "RC" which indicates that CAM 162 can only receive command messages. This mark indicates that the receiving unit 14 is probably in broadcast products And can not be disturbed except the most important information away. ...

De-queue module 162 accepts messages from the command module 150 is built on top of a message based on the Code Site is one of the information. Addresses are evaluated in the following format:

Select [All *] [where [Fieldname] [=, =>, <=,! =]

[Fieldvalue 1] [or and] [Fieldvalue .. n] The above expression simply states that all addresses are selected (two pick a +) All selected receiver unit Given statement alone has broadcast the results of all the receiving unit 14 contest. For example

SELECT *

And all selected There will be a result of the message transmitted through the receiving unit 14 to participate in all competitions since it will be evaluated for Is true.

Select statement can be modified by the directive that identifies where all the statements that need to be evaluated as true The. FieldName is FieldValur queue evaluate some of the operations. This means that FieldName can be evaluated as equal to, less than, more than, or equal to, the special value. For example,

SELECT * in MOUNTAIN-state = 1 It will be delivered in the receiving unit have a domain name MOUNTAIN_COUNTRY start of i avalue. This In addition,

Select * MOUNTAIN-state 1 = 1 Receiving unit will send a total of 14 does not include the domain name MOUNTAIN_COUNTRY start value of i. Selection parameters can be complex also.

When the reference Figure 11H, CAM162 provides routing database updates and communications services as promised Multi-module test before and behind it. All communications traffic had been defeated transmitted via CAM162.

CAM162 receive data and commands in parallel from two sources: the standard commands supplied from satellite Command module 150 and the service terminal 86. Each data supply must be separated by de-queue interface and Married port of entry module 163. Both attached to the CAM162 transmission via software plug-132H- I.

Subsequently filtered message is not aimed at the receiving unit 14, de-convert command packet enters the queue Receiving unit packet and forwards it to the CAM162.

CAM162 respond to a limited number of commands. A place to send a command to tell CAM162 Application data to the presentation layer (PAL) 164. The second command tells CAM162 put the letter sent Interest to the hardware abstraction layer (HAL) 166. PAL164 is the interface located CAM162 and presentations engine 168. This allows the presentation engine 168 to be replaced easily.

HAL166 contains multiple layers is one of a small module that can be written and run from the CAM 162, includes such tools as desirable to remove file fragments, a debugger, and so on. The use many layers of software, each utility or function is small sheets. This allows the software to be easy under the new Set to the receiving unit 14 via the transmission signal.

CAM162 contains the application modules that provide most of the received external moving parts. Command to enter the system in the SQL query language commands subset.

Configuration and meteorological data into the system is to write to a dynamic list of files (DIF) 220, ginseng To Figure 27. Also as an information file is necessary in other processes, mainly presentation, this layer Provides near DIF220 records. CAM162 that it comes from a third party presentation layer is referred to, have been completed Into, and surveillance.

HAL166 module that contains core system services and monitoring procedures at the lowest level, do the following modules Into this layer:

Disk manipulation: due to heavy disk usage in multimedia applications and the fact that the receiving unit 14 Is automatic system hard disk must be constantly monitoring procedures and services. This module supervisory procedures A disk problem in the low cycle and de-segment off times.

Diagnosis:, very low-level diagnostics must be performed periodically to determine the events and legitimate than If the presentation complete assurance that the memory leak has not yet occurred. This module performs diagnostics on automatic Fashion or be called by the service Daemon for remote debugging.

Dynamic list: all the information in the system complexity is reduced to the dynamic list. DIF distribution Set 220 is flat indexed database which contains two domains - domain identifier and the field value. Relationship In the receiving unit 14 and the product server 76 is shown in Figure 16-16A.

Domain ID and meaningful data depends on the data context. Figure 29 Example number stated According to the type used by the system 9. If the data is program data, domain ID protested run the program. If Data are meteorological data, display data domain ID protest. This strategy provides a very simple design in Where DIF220 requires only three fields for each record. This file allows to promote new types of data items Into products that can be expanded and meteorological data and effects of the current number that can be displayed. DIF's 220 is an example of the format specified in Figure 27.

Female record consists of four fields as listed in Figure 28 and includes a field lists the child in FIG. 28, too. The design of the manipulated variable length data entered by the destruction of the data segment. This method has further Advantage in that DIF27-0 could be former - allocated in the receiving unit 14 hard disk.

The module may include other within the HAL 166 as appropriate or necessary to receive the operation Member 14.

Each receiver unit contains elements of the configuration data. Most of this data tells the receiving unit 14 Who it is, where it is, and how its hardware and software will be configured. Data transmission All legitimate any command receiving unit 14 transfers. In order to lead it to specific data receiving unit Element 14 address must be included in the message. If the receiver "sees" its address in the message packet, It "knows" that the message directed to it.

DIF220 see the local conditions, forecast, and notifications. This information combined with the effects of health Meteorological products produced locally. DIF220 keeping the tool table that is HAL166-compatible. Remember Where recorded program is positioned far away are asked to perform these procedures.

Receiving unit 14 must absorb all data is transmitted by the host 52. The first input Packet must be untied and the address header is resolved by a lookup table to determine is interested in DIF No message is dedicated to the reception unit 14. This activity takes place in CAM162. If CAM162 It aims to determine that the message, it then determines what data is sent by the font it assessed SQL Commands. Only three possible commands a playback data value, an execution HAL / PAL command and a Of execution CAM command - just as in any SQL language.

Settings in the following format, assuming there DI component specified

Current - Temporary

Current - temp = 70 CAM162 sure it would put the value of the message is DIF file. CAM162 first look DIF FID. If DIF FID present it and then add it and set values. If DIF FID existing It simply replaces the current value.

Execute any command format is as follows. CALL AD01

Assumed AD01 for a product (the current observation). Taking into account the AD01 by one of the Send instructions to HAL166 or PAL164 the CALL state comes, CAM162 Find DIF files The AD01. Once found, CAM162 for this type of data to quantify. If such data Type is a program, then sends commands to the HAL166. If the data type is the product, the hair Send commands to the PAL.

CAM162 immediately identifies some instructions. These instructions are listed in Figure 30. The issue HAL166 Instructions for performing common modules. These modules are located on a common platform, so that they can Transmission through software jack 132 to CAM162 report information.
