Abstract:
The present invention relates to a transmission method, a transmission apparatus, a reception method, and a reception apparatus of a digital broadcasting signal that can add frame header information to a front portion of a transmission frame in a transmission system for digital broadcasting to thereby determine a different transmission mode, modulation level, hierarchical modulation, error correction code, and the like for each temporally different transmission frame, and a transmission frame structure thereof. The transmission frame structure includes a frame header containing multiplexing information of the transmission frame, and a frame body containing data information associated with a service provided by the transmission frame. Also, the frame header may include a frame synchronization signal unit including synchronization signal information for extracting a start position of the transmission frame and a frame information unit including multiplexing information of data contained in the transmission frame. The multiplexing information denotes information associated with a transmission mode, a modulation level, a hierarchical modulation, and an error correction code of the data contained in the transmission frame.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a signaling method for a stereoscopic video service and an apparatus using the method. An image decoding method comprises: a step of determining a field value based on a broadcast service type and a display mode in decoding a program level descriptor; and a step of determining an encoded stream type, whether an elementary stream is a reference stream, whether the elementary stream is a left-eye image or a right-eye image, additional image upsampling information and information on a subsampled line. Thus, efficiency of encoding/decoding an additional image for a stereoscopic video content may increase.
Abstract:
Disclosed are an apparatus and method for extracting a texture image and a depth image. The apparatus of the present invention irradiates a pattern image onto a target object, photographs the image of the scene in which the pattern image is reflected by the target object, and extracts a texture image and a depth image at the same time using the image of the scene.
Abstract:
Provided is a broadcasting receiving method and device. The method detects the time of a televised broadcasting program, and provides the broadcasting program to the user from the start thereof. More specifically, the method requests transmission of the broadcasting program before a first time through the second network at the first time of the broadcasting program received through the first network, and stores the broadcasting program received through the first network at the first time. The broadcasting program, which was broadcasted before the first time, received through the second network from the first time to the second time is displayed and the stored broadcasting program after the second time is displayed.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a channel estimation and equalization method and system. The method inserts a pilot signal in the time domain into a guard interval, uses a hard decision signal in the frequency domain to estimate a frequency response of the channel, and equalizes a radio channel distortion through the estimated channel value.

Abstract:
In a method of transmitting broadcasting signals, a transmission frame has the same configuration as that of the existing terrestrial DMB signal. A transmission frame including a base layer service stream is modulated to a base layer, and a transmission frame including an enhancement layer service stream is modulated to an enhancement layer. The enhancement layer service stream is composed of additional data that is not included in the base layer service stream, in order to provide an enhancement layer service. In this way, the method can provide a high-quality service requiring high transmission efficiency while being compatible with the existing terrestrial DMB system. The high transmission efficiency means a higher data transfer rate than that of the existing terrestrial DMB system.
Abstract:
In a terrestrial DMB, a transmitting apparatus multiplexes a plurality of service streams generated for any service to a plurality of ensembles. In this case, the same sending time data is constructed in a time stamp field of each frame for each of a plurality of ensembles. With this configuration, a plurality of transmitting apparatuses can send a plurality of transmission frames including service streams for the same service at the same point of time, and thus receiving apparatuses can actually receive a plurality of transmission frames at the same point of time.
