Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of methods for the transmission and reception of radiotelevision signals of the terrestrial digital broadcasting type and relative apparatus.
- satellite type radiotelevision signals are received by a satellite antenna 2' associated with a Low Noise Block converter 3', or LNB, which moves in block the satellite radiotelevision signals to the first intermediate frequency l st IF, while the broadcasted terrestrial radiotelevision signals are received by an antenna 4' enabled to receive such signals that are then passed on to a terminal head 5' for terrestrial television channels.
- LNB Low Noise Block converter
- the satellite and terrestrial radiotelevision signals are then sent, by way of a coaxial cable distribution network, to user's plug sockets connected to apparatus having a tuner for terrestrial broadcast bands (TV with integrated digital tuner or iDTV: "integrated Digital Television”) or by means of a dedicated set-top box, that tunes and demodulates television channels (terrestrial and satellite) according to their radiofrequency and modulation characteristics.
- TV with integrated digital tuner or iDTV: "integrated Digital Television” integrated Digital Television
- iDTV integrated Digital Television
- dedicated set-top box that tunes and demodulates television channels (terrestrial and satellite) according to their radiofrequency and modulation characteristics.
- TV receivers set-top boxes and iDTVs, are usually able to receive broadcasted terrestrial television signals (DVB-T/T2); the frequency bands from which they are able to tune are those shown in Figure 2, as determined nationally and internationally by competent bodies and authorities.
- DVD-T/T2 broadcasted terrestrial television signals
- FIG. 3 an additional example of a system 1 for receiving broadcasted terrestrial and satellite radiotelevision signals is illustrated whose main characteristic is to make available to the user's plug sockets all television channels, namely digital terrestrial broadcasts (DVB-T) and satellite channels (DVB -S), in the abovementioned VHF/UHF bands and with the COFDM modulation ("Coded Orthogonal Frequency - Division Multiplexing") typical of DVB-T (Digital Video Broadcasting-Terrestrial) .
- DVD-T digital terrestrial broadcasts
- DVD -S satellite channels
- COFDM modulation Coded Orthogonal Frequency - Division Multiplexing
- the radiotelevision signals received by the satellite antenna 2 with QPSK modulation are conveyed to the low noise converter 3 and then trans-modulated, in the terminal head 7 for satellite television channels, in the COFDM format typical of DVB - T, before being sent to the distribution network of the communal television system together with other terrestrial television broadcasted signals.
- the V Band should be limited to 790 MHz, corresponding to the UHF channel 60, eliminating the digital terrestrial television service from 791 MHz to 862 MHz (800 MHz) and assigning said frequencies to the LTE type mobile phone service, as represented in Figure 4. Therefore the frequencies from 791 MHz to 862 MHz are no longer part of the spectrum reserved for digital video broadcasting terrestrial (DVB -T) and it is therefore no longer possible to radiate television services in this frequency band, because such services would be dominated by the mobile telephone signals (LTE), which, given their extensive transmission system in both rural and urban areas, cause a high level LTE signals received by the television antenna with respect to signals coming from a transmitter of digital terrestrial broadcasts.
- LTE mobile telephone signals
- television signal receivers related to digital terrestrial broadcasting still have the ability to tune and demodulate television signals related to digital terrestrial broadcasting (DVB -T) in the frequency band from 7 1 MHz to 862 MHz.
- UHF channels 61-69 have been discontinued from terrestrial television broadcasting, which make up the 800 MHz band, i.e. nine radiofrequency channels of 8 MHz bandwidth.
- the UHF channels 49-60 will also be deleted, which are the 700 MHz band, that is, twelve additional radiofrequency channels of 8 MHz bandwidth.
- television signal receivers related to digital television broadcasting - terrestrial (DVB-T) will for many years be able to tune and demodulate television signals related to digital terrestrial broadcasting (DVB-T).
- each terrestrial broadcasted TV channel with digital coding and modulation contains at least six SD (standard definition) coded television programs (coordinated in a group called MUX or Multiplex DVB), the deletion of nine channels (current) and a further twelve (in the future), for a total of twenty one television channels, corresponds to the inability to transmit up to about one hundred and twenty different television programs.
- An object of the present invention is therefore to indicate a method and a system for the transmission and reception of radiotelevision signals of the terrestrial digital broadcasting type, and relative apparatus, that solves the drawbacks due to assignment to mobile telephony services of a band previously assigned to terrestrial digital broadcasting.
- a further object of the present invention is to indicate a method and a system for the transmission and reception of radiotelevision signals of the terrestrial digital broadcasting type, and relative apparatus, which allows to maintain the number of radiotelevision programs, that can be received by a television signal receiver of digital terrestrial broadcasts of the known kind, unchanged.
- a further object of the present invention is to indicate a method and a system for the transmission and reception of radiotelevision signals of the terrestrial digital broadcasting type, and relative apparatus, which does not require the replacement of the antenna system used for receiving said radiotelevision signals, but simply adapt and modify it.
- a further object of the present invention is to indicate a method and a system for the transmission and reception of radiotelevision signals of the terrestrial digital broadcasting type, and relative apparatus, that does not need to modify or replace the receiver of said radiotelevision signals, in order to make use of the number of television services equal in number to those received before part of the spectrum relative to digital terrestrial broadcasting was assigned to mobile operators.
- a further object of the present invention is to indicate a method and a system for the transmission and reception of radiotelevision signals of the terrestrial digital broadcasting type, and related apparatus, which allows to allocate in a predetermined manner, by a broadcaster or by a user, the radiotelevision programs in the frequency band allocated to mobile services.
- a further object of the present invention is to indicate a method and a system for the transmission and reception of radiotelevision signals of the terrestrial digital broadcasting type, and related apparatus, which allows for increasing the coverage of the radiotelevision signals of the terrestrial digital broadcasting type receivable by a receiver of the known kind.
- a further object of the present invention is to indicate a method and a system for the transmission and reception of radiotelevision signals of the terrestrial digital broadcasting type, and related apparatus, which complies with the standards relating to the use of frequencies and which does not require authorization from the authorities in charge of the allocation of broadcast frequencies for both television and telephone.
- the invention also relates to a reception system, a transmitter and a receiver of radiotelevision signals of the terrestrial digital broadcasting type and a trans-modulator used in said reception system.
- the method and system of the present invention provides for transmitting radiotelevision programs, which can no longer find a location in the channels of the terrestrial broadcasted television, by means of satellite television transponders, for example in the 11-12 GHz band, to receive them in the television antenna system 1 illustrated in Figure 3, subsequently to convert them into the COFDM format and then distribute them in the radiofrequency channels that are certainly available, as they are no longer used for terrestrial television broadcasting, but assigned to the LTE mobile service, i.e. in the channels of the 800 MHz band (UHF channels 61-69) and in the future in the channels of the 700 MHz band (UHF channels 49-60).
- the LTE mobile service i.e. in the channels of the 800 MHz band (UHF channels 61-69) and in the future in the channels of the 700 MHz band (UHF channels 49-60).
- the method and system, and related apparatus, of the present invention therefore allow to use the television channels discontinued for use by the terrestrial television broadcasting (61-69 UHF today and in the future 49-60 UHF) for the distribution via cable in an individual or Community distribution system (master antenna system), as these signals are transmitted in the DVB-T standard (COFDM modulation), receivable by normal digital TV receivers (iDTV and set-top boxes for DTT: Digital Terrestrial Television), or in the DVB-T2 standard, planned for future television receivers and set- top boxes for DTT.
- COFDM modulation COFDM modulation
- iDTV and set-top boxes for DTT Digital Terrestrial Television
- the allocation of television programs received by satellite and inserted today in the UHF channels 61-69 can be carried out in a predetermined or different manner in each individual or Community cable distribution system.
- trans-modulators that only work in the 800 MHz band (in the future also in that of 700 MHz) and, possibly, with a prearranged allocation of television channels, allows for obtaining a cost reduction of the apparatus, resulting in a simplification of its circuitry and functioning.
- FIG. 1 shows a diagram of a reception system of terrestrial and satellite radiotelevision signals of the known type
- FIG. 2 illustrates a table of frequency bands on which a receiver of terrestrial broadcasted television signals is able to carry out the tuning
- FIG. 3 illustrates a block diagram of a reception system of terrestrial and satellite radiotelevision signals used in the method and in the receiving system according to the present invention
- FIG. 4 shows the band usage of the LTE type mobile service
- FIGS. 5 and 6 show respective block diagrams of two respective embodiments of a trans-modulator of the radiotelevision signals receiving system of Figure 3.
- the technical description and installations of the proposed inventive solution is clear from the operational description of the distribution technique via coaxial cable as shown in Figure 3, bearing in mind that the channels in which the radiotelevision programs received by satellite are distributed are those of the 800 MHz band (and in the future those of the 700 MHz band) assigned to the LTE service.
- each trans-modulator 9 of the terminal head 7 for satellite television channels is made up of:
- a subsequent frequency converter 25 able to obtain an output signal from the trans- modulator 9 in one of the television channels (8 MHz wide) comprised between channel 61, having a center frequency of 794 MHz, and channel 69, having a center frequency of 858 MHz, or in the future comprised between channel 49 and channel 69.
- trans-modulator 9 Since television receivers (iDTV and set-top boxes) capable of receiving the entire UHF band (up to channel 69) are still on the market, the user will be able to receive radiotelevision programs broadcast by satellite, but converted (both in frequency and modulation) in the channels, for example today 61-69 UHF, with COFDM modulation. A detailed description of the functions of the trans-modulator 9 is given in the following with particular reference to Figure 5.
- the functional operations, carried out on the radiotelevision signal received by satellite in the 11/12 GHz band and converted in the low noise converter 3 of the antenna (parabolic) in the first intermediate frequency band (950-2150 MHz), are the following: 1) tune the received signal in the first intermediate frequency band by way of the tuner 20;
- a decoder block 22 decodes by way of a decoder block 22, the output signal from the demodulator 21 with respect to channel coding (Viterbi if the satellite signal is compliant with the DVB-S standard or LDPC if the satellite signal is compliant with the DVB-S2 standard) used in the satellite transmission, Reed-Solomon decoding (if the satellite signal is compliant with the DVB-S standard) or BCH (if the satellite signal is compliant with the DVB-S2 standard), and "descrambling" the related data, in order to obtain a complete multiplex, transmitted by satellite;
- channel coding Viterbi if the satellite signal is compliant with the DVB-S standard or LDPC if the satellite signal is compliant with the DVB-S2 standard
- Reed-Solomon decoding if the satellite signal is compliant with the DVB-S standard
- BCH if the satellite signal is compliant with the DVB-S2 standard
- an extraction block 23 extract in a first part of an extraction block 23 the components that make up the multiplex to identify each TV program (video, audio and data) by way of information contained within the multiplex (more precisely in the SI/PSI tables) obtaining the values of the PID (Packet Identifier) assigned to the multiplex transmitted by satellite to every component of the television programs (video, audio and data) that a user may wish to receive; reassembling, in a second part of the extraction block 23, the multiplex, possibly smaller than that received, for example, only using the radiotelevision programs of interest to the user, in particular the most important, at a national television broadcasting level, and that can be included in the transmission capacity with CODFM modulation of the DVB-T channel (or DVB-T2);
- - allows for increasing the number of television channels distributed in an antenna installation, compared to those broadcast today with digital terrestrial broadcasting (DVB -T), enabling reception with normal television receivers which users already own; - the blocks 20,21,22,23,24,25, used for the trans-modulation from QPSK, if the signal is compliant with the DVB-S standard, or QPSK or 8-PSK if the received signal is compliant to the DVB-S2 standard, to COFDM of DVB-T/T2, may be simplified by reducing overall costs, having to generate the signals only in the 800 MHz band (and in the future the 700 MHz band);
- - positioning radiotelevision programs within the MUX contained in the UHF channels 61-69 can be chosen either in a preset mode or at will, even on the basis of priority criteria established by the user; channel allocation is in fact established during the installation of the system by a technician, that takes into account the preferences of the user, or by the broadcaster, if the method described below is used;
- zapping In fact, if zapping is carried out from one television service to the next, or to the previous one, in the case of two services contained in the same television multiplex, the switching time between one service and the other is less if compared to the case in which the two services are contained in two different multiplexes.
- the method according to the present invention provides the advantage, compared to known solutions, of simplifying the tuners 20 of the trans-modulators 9, nowadays adapted to generate the UHF channels 61-69, or in the future UHF channels 49-69, thus resulting in a cost reduction of the trans-modulators 9.
- the transmission capacity of a DVB-T channel of 8 MHz with COFDM modulation is, at most, of the order of 30 Mbit/s (see Table A.l of ETSI EN 300 744 Standard v.1.5.1 (2004-11), p. 40), which is about half of that of a satellite transponder, that with QPSK modulation is capable of transmitting 27,5 Msymbol/s, that is 55 Mbit/s.
- This first further embodiment involves:
- trans-modulators 9 or a single trans-modulator 9' with two outputs as shown in Figure 6) that trans-modulate on two distinct channels (from among those always available: 61-69 UHF or in the future 49-69 UHF) the two parts of the multiplex received by satellite, assigning user definable preset channels, or programmable by a computer product that can be uploaded to a memory of said trans- modulators 9 that include, in the block 23 of Figure 5, portions of software code, as it will be further explained below.
- a multiplex with a band approximately half that compared with the usual DVB-S or DVB-S2 standards so as to be QPSK demodulated (if DVB-S) or QPSK/8-PS (if DVB-S2) and COFDM re-modulated, without requiring processing by the trans-modulator 9 of Figures 3 and 5, further reducing the complexity and costs.
- This solution is easy to implement, but penalizes the transmission capacity of the satellite.
- a third further embodiment of the transmission method of radiotelevision signals it is possible to introduce into a suitable section of a multiplex, information which, via a software program product that can be uploaded to a memory of said trans-modulator 9 and comprising portions of software code 23 in block 9 of the trans-modulator of Figure 5 which can possibly be updated via satellite, allows for the automatic assignment of UHF channels 61-69 or UHF channels 49-69 in the future, re-modulated into COFDM format, taking into account the priority (importance) of the programs broadcast by satellite in QPSK format (or 8-PSK if DVB-S2).
- This solution involves a further advantage for simplifying the work of the antenna installation technician, avoiding the need, in the installation phase of trans-modulators 9, to manually define the output channel.
- labor costs impact the overall cost of the installation more than the cost of the apparatus itself, it would be advantageous if it was the actual broadcaster to decide on which terrestrial television channel the various services of the multiplex (a group of radiotelevision programs) should be included.
- each of these broadcasters could allocate all of their services in contiguous multiplexes. Or such assignment of channels could be made by means of appropriate national (or international) agreements.
- the broadcaster would insert such information, namely that of the channel on which to perform the trans-modulation, in one of the SI/PSI tables present in the multiplex, the trans- modulator 9 would read the information in the appropriate table and would then automatically execute the tuning.
- SI tables Service Information
- PSI Program Specific Information
- MPEG Program Specific Information
- a multiplex transmitted by satellite is transferred entirely on a terrestrial channel: in this case there would be however an inefficient usage of satellite bandwidth, as the satellite multiplex has about double the capacity and that used would only be that necessary for performing the direct trans-modulation of the multiplex format from QPSK if the received signal is compliant with the DVB-S standard (QPSK or 8-PSK if the received signal is compliant to the DVB-S2 standard) to the COFDM format of the DVB-T channel (or DVB-T2);
- the services present in the satellite multiplex are distributed on two or more terrestrial channels chosen among those that have been discontinued.
- a cable or terrestrial decoder in the case of master antenna installations receives a NIT table relative to the satellite channel, and in this case said decoder should ignore said table, however current decoders do not do this, or in cases where they do, a malfunction of the actual decoders would result.
- the satellite multiplex it is contemplated to insert in the satellite multiplex, not only the NIT table relating to said multiplex, but also the NIT table with the specifications of the terrestrial channel (DVB-T/T2) upon which the signal must be transferred, i.e. the specifications of a channel belonging to a network located downstream, rather than upstream.
- the NIT table relating to said multiplex
- the NIT table with the specifications of the terrestrial channel (DVB-T/T2) upon which the signal must be transferred i.e. the specifications of a channel belonging to a network located downstream, rather than upstream.
- Such a descriptor was not provided for by MPEG nor by DVB: however it is possible, taking advantage of the flexibility of the specific SI/PSI, to add such a descriptor in the NIT table of the satellite multiplex, in the form of descriptor defined by the user ("user defined”). According to the present invention, a similar device could be made to specify the destination channel of each service, using another "user defined” descriptor. This descriptor would be ignored by all decoders, and would be used exclusively by the trans-modulator 9 to learn about the target channel with all the services of the multiplex.
- a further way to solve the case (b) may be the following.
- the satellite broadcaster could also provide, in addition to the usual satellite NIT table, this time without any modifications, the two NIT tables related to the two decommissioned digital terrestrial channels to which the various services in the multiplex satellite would be transferred (based on the idea described above for case (a): transmission of NIT tables of networks located downstream).
- NIT table A relating to the semi- multiplex A
- NIT table B relative to the semi-multiplex B.
- the satellite decoder would ignore both tables, as they refer to non- congruent networks; however said tables would be used by a trans-modulator 9' with double output that works, according to the present invention, in a coordinated manner: one part identifies the services of the semi-multiplex A, encodes them into a COFDM format in block 24a and converts them, through block 25a, in the digital terrestrial channel indicated by the NIT table A, whereas the other part identifies the services of the semi-multiplex B, encodes them in the COFDM format in block 24b and converts them through block 25b, in the digital terrestrial channel indicated by the NIT table B.
- the same operation could be performed by two distinct trans-modulators, i.e.
- the first trans-modulator 9 would have to cancel the NIT table B, while the second trans-modulator 9 would have to cancel the NIT table A, so that each digital terrestrial channel only contains the NIT table relating to it so as not to confuse the decoder DVB-T/T2 located downstream.
- the trans-modulator 9' also comprises a memory in which a software program product can be uploaded comprising software code portions in the block 23.
- SDT table Service Description Table
- PAT table Program Association Table
- the present invention is not limited to a method and system for the transmission and reception of radiotelevision signals of the terrestrial digital broadcasting type, and related transmitter, receiver system, trans- modulator and receiver, but is subject to various modifications, improvements, substitution of equivalent parts and elements without however departing from the inventive idea, as is better clarified in the following claims.
