Abstract:
Provided is a frequency synchronizing apparatus and method that can synchronize center frequency of radio frequency (RF) transmission signals among distributed repeaters using identical signals as mother signals by reflecting sampling information acquired in a timing recovery process of reception signals transmitted from a main transmitter or other repeaters. The apparatus for synchronizing frequency in distributed repeaters includes: a timing recoverer for compensating sampling timing offset of reception signals; an intermediate frequency (IF) timing offset information reflector for applying the sampling timing offset information extracted in the timing recoverer to digital-to-analog conversion; and a radio frequency (RF) timing offset information reflector for applying the sampling timing offset information extracted in the timing recoverer to RF up-conversion as a reference signal.

The apparatus for improving a performance of a pre-equalizer in a transmitter of a digital broadcasting system having a feedback path for adaptively generating a filter coefficient of the pre-equalizer, includes a reference signal generator for generating a reference radio frequency (RF) signal, a feedback path estimator for estimating transmission band characteristic information for the feedback path based on the reference RF signal generated from the reference signal generator, and a feedback path compensator for compensating a demodulated signal transferred through the feedback path based on the estimated transmission band characteristic information from the feedback path estimator and generating a filter coefficient of the pre-equalizer.
Abstract:
Provided are a distributed repeater for repeating output signals identical to input signals through a channel different from that of main transmitter signals but identical to channels of other distributed repeaters, and a distributed repeating method thereof. The distributed repeater includes: a pre-processing unit configured to receive a radio frequency (RF) signal transmitted from an external device and demodulate the RF signal into a baseband signal; an equalizer configured to equalize the baseband signal to correct a distortion occurring on a transmission channel; an identification signal generation and insertion unit configured to generate an identification signal for identification of the distributed repeater and network conditioning, and insert the identification signal in the equalized baseband signal; and a post-processing unit configured to convert the baseband signal from the identification signal generation and insertion unit into an RF signal, and send the RF signal.
Abstract:
Provided are an on-channel repeater and a method thereof. The on-channel repeater can extract reception channel information from signals transmitted from a main transmitter or another repeater, compensate for channel distortion caused on a transmission channel by inversely reflecting the extracted reception channel information to the received signals, and transmit the channel-distortion compensated signals through the same channel as a reception channel, and a method thereof. The on-channel repeater includes: a receiver for receiving RF signals transmitted from outside; a down-converter for down- converting the received RF signals into signals of a desired band; a channel-estimator for estimating an inverse value of a reception channel based on the down- converted signals; an adaptation filter for compensating for channel distortion by using a filter having the inverse value of the estimated reception channel; an up- converter for up-converting the channel distortion- compensated signals into RF signals; and a transmitter for transmitting the up-converted RF signals.
