    Abstract: An information distribution system comprises a central station (100) which includes an audience information processing section (114) and distributes digital multichannel service signals through a first transmission path (200); a plurality of network stations (300, 340) that receive digital multichannel service signals distributed by the central station using reception means (310, 320, 330), convert the received digital multichannel signals into digital multichannel service signals for a second transmission path (400) using modulation/conversion means, and send them to the network (400); and a plurality of receiving terminals (500) which receive digital multichannel service signals distributed by the network station. The receiving terminals (500) record the received audience information and send the information to the audience information processing section (114) in central station (100).

    Abstract: A scrambling system for an audio frequency signal in which an audio signal is divided into blocks, each block being formed of a plurality of frames, the plurality of frames are rearranged on a timebase in a predetermined order at every block so as to be encoded and the encoded signal is re-arranged on the timebase in an original order so as to be decoded, in which there are provided a first signal processing circuit for inserting a redundant portion into a portion between adjoining frames and timebasecompressing the frames in response to the redundant portions upon encoding, a control signal generating circuit for inserting a control signal other than an audio information into the redundant portions, a control signal detecting circuit for detecting the control signal upon decoding and a second signal processing circuit for removing the redundant portions in synchronism with the detected control signal and timebase-expanding the frames in response to the redundant portions. Therefore, even when the audio signal is transmitted through a system in a transmission path having a timebase fluctuation such as a transmission path of a VTR (video tape recorder) and the like the frequency band region of which is restricted, the signal waveform is not distorted and a noise is not mixed therein so that the scrambling communication having high quality and high reliability can be presented.

    Abstract: A bidirectional digital signal communication system includes a plurality of terminal units in communication with a center unit. Each of the terminal units includes a signal generator for generating digital data spread with a PN (pseudo-noise) code, a modulator for modulating the digital data on a carrier, and a transmitter for transmitting the modulated digital signal to the center unit through a transmission line. The center unit includes a receiver for receiving the modulated digital signal, a PN code generator for locally generating a PN code which corresponds to the transmitted PN code, a multiplier supplied with outputs of the receiver and the PN code generator to produce a digital signal de-spread from the PN code, a demodulator connected to the multiplier to reproduce the digital data from the modulated digital signal, and a memory for storing the PN code when the signal level of the multiplier exceeds a predetermined value. The stored PN code is retrieved from the memory to enable rapid synchronization with the next transmission received from the terminal unit.

    Abstract: An information transmitting system including a transmitter and at least one receiver. The transmitter includes a modulator which is modulated by a first control signal intermittently, and whose center frequency is changed continuously in response to a second control signal. The receiver is provided with a frequency discriminator which demodulates the first and second control signals and the first control signal is applied as a first remotely controllable signal in digital fashion and the second control signal is applied as a second remotely controllable signal in analog fashion in the receiver.

    Abstract: A QPSK demodulation circuit 421 QPSK-demodulates an inputted TS and outputs it to an error correction circuit 422. The error correction circuit 422 corrects the inputted signal and outputs it to a network information (NIT) conversion circuit 423. The NIT conversion circuit 423 replaces the NIT for CS waves with NIT for cable TV and outputs it to a QAM demodulation circuit 424. The QAM demodulation circuit 424 QAM-demodulates the inputted signal and outputs it to a frequency conversion circuit 425. The frequency conversion circuit 425 converts the frequency of the inputted signal into a predetermined value and outputs the signal to a signal mixer.
