Ernest C.Chen等人於2002年7月1曰提出申請的標題為,, 改良階層8相移鍵控法性能(IMPROVING HIERARCHICAL 8PSK PERFORMANCE)"的第60/392,861號美國臨時專利申 請案。 本發明係關於Ernest C_Chen於200 1年4月27日提出申請 的標題為”數位信號的分層調變(LAYERED MODULATION FOR DIGITAL SIGNALS),’的第 09/844,401 號美國專利申請 案’其揭示内容以引用方式併入本文中。 【發明所屬之技術領域】 本發明概言之係關於用於發送和接收數位信號之系統, 詳言之’係關於利用階層調變技術廣播和接收數位信號之 系統。 【先前技術】 數位號通信系統業已應用於包括數位電視信號之地面 或衛星傳輸在内的各種領域中。 隨著各種數位信號通信系統和服務的發展演變,萌發出

的符號錯誤。發生此等錯誤沾A 哥錯誤的原因為,解調變ΉΡ資料信號 中使用的時序/載波還原迴路中屮 y出現過多追蹤錯誤及已解 調變HP資料信號中存在過多符號錯誤。 86310 1324463 因此’需要一種用於在(例如)非—致8PSK中接收階層調 變符號並可減小LP資料信號錯誤及提供改良性能的系統和 方法。本發明可滿足該需要。 【發明内容】 為了改良解調變器性能’本發明之具體實施例利用可自 HP解調變獲得準無錯誤(QEF)上層(UL)符號之事實。此等 實質上無錯誤的符號可用於徹底抵消接收信號中的u l信 號以得到-更清潔的下層(LL)信號。此等實質上無錯誤的 符號亦可用於一第二淨化追蹤迴路中以降低迴路雜訊,藉 以進-步改良其性能。其結果為:利用本發明可改良认信 號品質並因此獲得更佳的BER性能。分層調變十所使用^ 語UL和LL分別與階層調變中所用Hl^n Lp同義。 ^本發明之具體實施例可降低上述非—致8咖技術所需 訊雜比(SNR)’藉此減小必要的衛星放大器輸出功率。舉例 而言,在本發明之具體實施例中’可針對一給定接收:線 尺寸降低所需衛星放大器輸出功率;或者可針對—給定衛 星放大器輸出功率減小接收器天線尺寸等。 ▲本發明一典型方法包括下列步驟:解調變並處理一階居 調變信號以從第一階層的第一調變中產生符號;應用 忒第一階層之該第一調變的複數個符號之資訊以自該已 調變階層調變信號減去該等複數個符號,以在該第二階涔 獲侍該第二調變;及在第二階層處理該第 9

一 FEC 才X正解調變器402。該重編碼信號容許校正解調變器4〇2使 用已改良的載波/追蹤還原功能來解調變該輸入信號2〇2 ^ 此方法可減少錯誤並改良Lp資料222之BER。如同圖3所示 /、體實施例,由於會在錯誤校正後應用該Hp符號,因此圖4 所示具體實施例亦可使用纟自複數個符號的資㉝來移除該 HP資料。 方塊204、216和402可採用的典型解調變器闡述於Edward 86310 14 1324463
