In service multiplexer and hop 104, compressed data flow can be divided into all packets of information and can add the similar device that is used to discern each bag or bag.In this process, video data stream, the bag of audio stream and the data flow of replenishing can become an independent data flow through multiplexed (multiplex).The data of having packed can be used video, and the data-signal packing and the multiplexed MPEG-2 transmission system of audio frequency and the broadcast system that is used for numeral are transmitted.
At radio frequency/radiating portion 106, the data quilt of having packed is by channel coding and modulation.Channel encoder 120 can be revised data flow and add additional information, this additional information can be used for allowing receiver re-construct data from the signal that receives, and this signal is the influence that is subjected to common transmission interference source.
The signal that modulating part 122 utilizes the data diffluence modulation of numeral to send.In the DTV standard, modulation can be adopted a 8VSB (residual sideband) modulation scheme.Modulated signal can be exaggerated and deliver to antenna 124, is used for broadcasting in the mode of routine.
Fig. 2 represents that a radio frequency/emission system can receive data and clock signal 10 from the hop shown in the system of Fig. 1.Data and clock signal can be delivered to data recovery circuit 202, and this circuit is extracted data from the standard of transmission, and if necessary also can be from same signal the extracted data clock.Data-signal can be delivered to randomizer 204, and this generator changes the order of data in the scope of data flow according to the DTV standard.Randomizer 204 can be operated according to the generator multinomial, also can operate according to pseudo-random binary sequence.
Can deliver to Reed-Solomon (ReedSolomon) encoder 206 from the signal of randomizer 204 outputs, this encoder adopts the Reed-Solomon coding techniques that packets of information is provided, and this packets of information is to encode according to the known i.e. method of deciding of the receiver of signal.Encoded bag is sent to an interpolater 208, and this interpolater is carried out a convolutional interleave according to a set scheme on data.Reed-Solomon encoder 206 writes a data buffer (not shown) with the data rate of transport layer, and interleaver 208 is with the data rate read data of emission layer.This does not need synchronous shake hands and can move on two asynchronous clocks with regard to the allowance system.
Can deliver to lattice shape (trellis) encoder 210 from the signal of interleaver 208 outputs.In a DTV system, trellis encoder is used the lattice shape code of 2/3 speed that has a uncoded position.In the DTV system, utilize one 1/2 rate convolutional code, an input position is encoded as two carry-out bits, and encode in advance in other input position.According to the characteristic of DTV, the signaling waveform that uses with trellis code is the conformation of one 8 grades (3) one dimensions.Can be sent to a synchronous insertion circuit 212 from the signal of trellis encoder 210 outputs, the synchronizing signal of data segment and the synchronizing signal of data field are inserted in the appropriate location of this circuit in the data flow of numeral.
Can deliver to a Nyquist (Nyquist) filter 214 and the bandwidth (DTV system to standard be 6 megahertzes) of the spectrum limitations of the data flow behind the coding from the data flow of the numeral of synchronous insertion circuit 212 outputs in emission system.The function of filtering in the present invention comprises following step: the interpolation and the upconvert of (1) signal; (2) for non-linear corrected signal; (3) in addition balanced with a sef-adapting filter to the defective of existing frequency response; (4) to down-conversion and storage digital phantom.
Through nyquist filter 214 (with relevant shaping pulse) afterwards, can add a pilot tone.After the shaping pulse by nyquist filter, utilize the insertion of the insertion pilot signal of pilot signal to be kept in the circuit.The digital signal that the quilt that nyquist filter 214 provides is added with pilot tone is become an analog signal by a digital-to-analog converter 216, and is sent to one of input of an intermediate frequency mixer 30.Another input signal of intermediate frequency mixer 30 is the carrier frequency of an intermediate frequency, and it is from an IF-FRE phase-locked loop circuit 218.The intermediate-freuqncy signal that intermediate frequency mixer produced is sent to an intermediate-frequency circuit 40, and this circuit carries out filtering and output signal delivered to one of input of mixer channel 50 intermediate-freuqncy signal.Another input of channel frequency mixer 50 is a channel frequency that gets from a special radio frequency (UHF) phase-locked loop 170.In one embodiment of the invention, IF-FRE phase-locked loop 218 and special RF Phase-Lock Loop 70 can produce their signals separately from a public clock reference 190.The clock signal that clock reference 190 can make it is based on an external signal (EXT REF) or the clock signal that produces based on this machine, or the data of coming free exciter to receive.
Can deliver to a band pass filter 60 in a conventional way from the signal of channel frequency mixer 50 outputs, remove to produce a signal through filtering, this signal is amplified fully and supplies with antenna 220 is used for broadcasting.The signal that Fig. 2 represents to be input to data recovery circuit 202 can be the data and the clock signal of separating, or signal that the embeds clock application of Manchester's code (for example from).The clock ReSet Circuit can use the phase-locked loop of a standard to go to be locked in and be embedded on the clock that receives in the data.In case clock is restored, it just can be used for the timing of drive system.Data recovery circuit 202 can also comprise a frame synchronizer, and the signal that is used for sending at (Fig. 1's) translator unit is to the synchronizing signal location, and a data flow that receives is aligned to the usefulness of byte for processing.
Fig. 2 explanation receives the data byte of coming to each from translator unit in the DTV of standard system, the Reed-Solomon encoder requires doubly taking advantage of and 20 times XOR (XOR) addition of 20 apotypes (modula) 256.When adopting high data rate in the DTV system, coding needs a processor can finish 9,700 ten thousand operations each second.In one embodiment of the invention, the Reed-Solomon encoder connects same dictionary (look-up) table and can realize obtaining so high data rate in a programmable gate array in territory.
Nyquist filter 214 can be used as have-α-coefficient be a root of 0.1152-liter-cosine filter uses.This filter also can be used as a finite impulse response filter and realizes.In a preferred embodiment, this filter is a complex filter of handling the residual sideband function.
Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 represent (wherein public parts have public reference number), in one embodiment of the invention, the frequency mixer 30 of Fig. 1,50 with relevant phase-locked loop 218,70 can realize in a circuit, modulator 20 parts of the circuit of Fig. 1 are the single square of Fig. 3 by abbreviation in this circuit, modulator 20.A data-signal 10 that is sent to modulator 20 produces a clock signal 302 and an encoded data signal 21 (being the standard of simulation).Because clock signal 302 and encoded data signal 21 all produce since a digital data stream, the final frequency of these signals be directly and digital data rates proportional.If these signals are used to produce the signal that will launch, transmit just by the frequency lock of data source.Under a certain situation, emission layer be away from transport layer (may be under common control even), sends broadcasting station based on the signal of distant place data source and be under these circumstances the characteristic of the desired strictness in broadcasting station that can not go to reach such in the control of broadcasting frequency.In addition, administrative authority, resembling the desired interference problem for co-channel or adjacent channel of FCC is irrealizable to any frequency compensation that transmits not changing original data rate.In one aspect of the invention, tranmitting frequency to digital data the dependence of speed by circuit for eliminating shown in Figure 3.This circuit also provides one to be used to be provided with needed accurate frequency compensated device.
Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 describe the modulator 20 of the analog-modulated frequency signal that produces a coded data 21.In the DTV of standard signal, encoded data signal 21 can be for example to DTV illustrated be in one 8 residual sideband (VSB) standard.Encoded data signal 21 can be any other modulation signal, NTSC signal for example, a FM signal, amplitude-modulated signal and/or a monolateral band (SSB) signal etc.Under the situation of one 8 residual sideband (VSB) signal, signal will be just like form represented among Fig. 4, and this signal has the centre frequency of a nominal at 10.76 megahertzes and a VSB pilot signal nominal is arranged at 8.06 megahertzes in the figure.Usually, encoded data signal 21 is that this frequency is significantly less than the frequency of the signal that will broadcast on a frequency, and essential upconvert is to the frequency of broadcasting.Encoded data signal 21 at first is sent to a frequency changer 30 (for example frequency mixer) and goes to produce an intermediate-freuqncy signal 31.In one embodiment of the invention, the signal that a nominal frequency is arranged is 54.76 megahertzes is sent to frequency changer and goes to produce intermediate-freuqncy signal 31.This intermediate-freuqncy signal 31 is sent to a second frequency converter 50 (for example frequency mixer) and goes to make the intermediate-freuqncy signal upconvert to desired channel frequency then.Can be sent to a load from the signal of second frequency converter 50 output after being exaggerated as requested gets on.
Be used for the frequency of encoded data signal upconvert is got from a reference frequency 190 by frequency changer 30, as being revised by data clock 302.Like this, encoded data signal is the dependence cancellation of the frequency of speed to digital data, and the frequency of signal is corrected to its nominal state or near normal condition.
Fig. 3 expresses digital modulator 20, and this modulator also produces numerical data clock 302, and this clock is used to a programmable frequency divider 180, and it becomes 1 to 1 ratio with the pilot carrier frequency or the carrier frequency of the modulator 20 of numeral.Like this, for a DTV system, from the signal 181 of frequency divider 180 output normally at 8.06 megahertzes.Signal 181 is sent to one the 3rd frequency changer 150.
Reference frequency 190 is sent to a reference divider 80, phase detectors 90, loop filter 92 and a voltage controlled oscillator (" VCO ") 94.Reference signal 191 is sent to a digital controlled oscillator (" NCO ") 120, all delivers to the 4th frequency changer 130 from the signal of VCO94 and NCO120 output.Be sent to second input of the 3rd frequency changer 150 through bandpass filtering (" BPF " 140) from the output signal of the 4th frequency changer 130.The output signal of the 3rd frequency changer 150 through the bandpass filtering of second band pass filter 170 and before delivering to phase detectors 90 by 98 frequency divisions of second programmable frequency divider.
Be in operation, the frequency of NCO110 is controlled by reference frequency 190.Reference frequency can be a (not shown) that this machine produces or that receive from an external circuit or device.Reference frequency can be delivered to other similar circuit, and the signal that makes a plurality of numerals produce can be by frequency lock at same benchmark.
NCO120 should be able to provide enough frequency resolutions to arrive intermediate-freuqncy signal 31 desired degree.In the 4th frequency changer 130, deduct the output of NCO120 from the output of VCO94.BPF140 is used for filtering any unwanted output from the 4th frequency changer 130.
The 3rd frequency changer 150 that is in operation deducts the output signal of programmable frequency divider 180 from the output of a BPF140.The 2nd BPF170 is from any unwanted output of the 3rd frequency changer 150 eliminations, and gives second programmable frequency divider 98 this difference frequency.For the nominal signal state, second programmable frequency divider 98 is to be configured to have identical output frequency with reference divider 80.The output of these two frequency dividers 98,90 is supplied to phase detectors 90.Like this, the phase difference between the output of phase detectors 90 and its two inputs is proportional and be sent to loop filter 92.This loop filter 92 is the output transform of phase detectors 90 one and the proportional voltage of phase difference, and gives VCO94 this voltage.As a result, VCO94 in reference frequency, rather than is locked in the speed of original numeral by frequency lock.
Move under a non-nominal data rate with an input data signal, the circuit for eliminating of Fig. 3 the influence of non-nominal rate.For example, if the clock rate and the nominal value of the data 10 that arrive differ △, the frequency of signal 302 will equal 10.76 megahertzes and add △, and the frequency of signal 181 will equal 8.06 megahertzes and add △.△ propagates by the reference frequency component, and finally by VCO94, makes that the signal that is used in 30 upconvert of first frequency converter also is to depart from the △ value from nominal value.Because data-signal also departs from the △ value at signal 21, first frequency converter 30 cuts this two △ components, allows signal 31 not have departing from of △.
Standard at DTV transmits in the rules, and synchronizing signal (byte) is not the number of a uniqueness.So, if having data any 8 in succession the position identical with this sync byte, will provide the synchronous indication of a mistake.Native system utilizes a confidence counter to overcome the influence of this false sync.Confidence counter is counted continuously to the number of sync byte.With reference to figure 2, if data recovery circuit 202 can not expectably detect a sync byte, the confidence level of genlocing just descends, and confidence counter is by decrement.All do not detect a sync byte if some frames take place in data flow at a certain specific byte location, frame synchronizer loses genlocing with indication mechanism, and automatically begins a new frame search and catch operation.
Fig. 5 represents one embodiment of the present of invention, utilize the frame and the bit synchronizer of confidence counter can receive the data (serial data) that receive with a serial form from transport layer, serial data can be transformed to parallel form (resembling one 8 parallel data word) and supply with a synchronizing indicator 752 by a serial-to-parallel converter 750.Synchronizing indicator is made comparisons data word and predetermined synchronization character and is indicated whether found signal is provided for confidence counter 754 synchronously.If expectably find synchronizing signal, confidence counter 754 is with regard to increment counter, if still can not find as scheduled, counter 754 is with regard to decrement counter.A synchronizing signal is expected from frame of the synchronization character that is detected at last exactly.Like this, since last synchronous detecting, a modulo counter 758 is just counted the number of words that runs into, and starts confidence counter 754 on the synchronous word of expectation.If confidence counter 754 reaches a predetermined numerical value, during this frame just is considered to be in synchronously, and there is the signal of a genlocing to be sent to other parts in the circuit and/or to be shown to the Systems Operator.If confidence counter 754 is reduced to zero, just be considered to lose synchronously, cause the disappearance of synchronous locking signal and resetting of modulo counter 758, thereby restart to search for synchronizing signal (promptly beginning once new frame search and acquisition mode).
Fig. 5 represents that modulo counter 758 provides mould 8 countings of the serial bit that enters serial-to-parallel converter 750.Like this, converter 750 just can with the aiming at of the remainder holding position of sync detection circuit.At each mould counting finally, data word is when offering the data randomizer, and whether other parts that also offer synchronizing indicator data randomizer and circuit can utilize synchronous locking signal to go the determination data byte effective.Confidence counter can be modified easily and obtain the confidence level that synchronous locking signal obtains, and higher usually confidence level needs long synchronous detecting time.In addition, losing of genlocing need not wait until always that confidence counter turns back to zero (promptly can require the synchronous detecting of 5 successes to obtain locking, as long as but have the failure of three continuous subsynchronous detections just may cause synchronous losing).Similarly, successful synchronous detecting can bind for several times, make in case after synchronously locked, confidence counter not again increment to greater than the numerical value of locking (if still do not find as scheduled one synchronously will decrement).
Lose input synchronously after startup the time, the confidence counter circuit is set to begin one and searches the pattern of obtaining.In this acquisition mode, bits of serial data is delivered to serial-to-parallel converter 750 serially by clock, and this converter can adopt one 8 digit buffer form.So,, check the appearance of 8 data word sync byte in each clock cycle.If detect sync byte, the count enable position just is set, and circuit enters one and puts the letter test pattern.Whenever the count enable position is set, mould 1504 counters begin counting, until next 1504 (each is 188 8 a word or a frame) are sent out away.During this time, detected once more synchronously, whether the process of looking at repeats.If sync byte do not occur, the count enable position just is reset, and acquisition mode is just restarted.If detect the predetermined number of a continuous frame synchronization, synchronous locking signal just is set, and circuit enters a frame lock pattern.After this, normal operation beginning and frame synchronization are constantly detected and are gone to guarantee reliable emission.If do not find the synchronizing signal of frame in a predetermined frame number, circuit will be switched, and turns back to acquisition mode, restarts whole process.
Notice that the confidence counter circuit promptly can be used to launch the DTV signal, also can be used to receive and show in the receiver of DTV or other digital frame signal.As previously discussed, such receiver just is faced with a same foundation and keeps the problem of frame synchronization, and circuit of the present invention also will be useful to such receiver.
In one aspect of the invention, be used for the frequency of the signal of transport layer, by the interleaver (INTERLEAVER) of data can make with emission layer in signal frequency irrelevant.Make data interlacing with a kind of method in the prior art, this is well-known, and data frequency is reformed in the method.For example Fig. 7 represents to have from emission layer a signal of the data of 19.39 megahertz speed, is provided for a Reed-Solomon encoder usually and is used for encoding in the mode of routine.The data of leaving Reed-Solomon encoder 550 will be used to supply with microprocessor 552, and this processor will interweave to coded data, and it is usually in the mode of a pulse train, offer the device buffer 554 of retiming with speed arbitrarily.The device buffer 554 of retiming can delay usually and fills from the data of the pulse string mode of microprocessor and with particular rate the output signal according to its clock control, the normally speed of 10.76 megahertzes of standard.The clock signal that offers 10.76 megahertzes of the device buffer 554 of retiming in prior art system is usually produced by the PLL556 of 19.39 megahertz clocks (usually being to draw from data) driving from one.
In another aspect of the present invention, the pulse string mode microprocessor of prior art can utilize a suitable buffer that interweaves to delete.Fig. 7 represents a Reed Suo Luomeng encoder, it can receive data on the frequency of the transport layer of 19.39 megahertzes, and provide coded data to a data interleaver buffer 208, these data are read out with the speed of one the 43.04 megahertz buffer 208 from interleaver, and supply with trellis encoder 210, this trellis encoder is with the speed output lattice code data of 10.76 megahertzes related with emission layer.Notice that the clock of 43.04 megahertzes of speed conversion can use trellis encoder 210, and therefore can be for carrying out lattice code from the usefulness of interleaver buffer 208 extracted data as timing.The clock of delivering to trellis encoder is provided by a speed conversion device 650, this speed conversion device goes to produce the clock signal of one 43.04 megahertz with the clock signal that the ratio of a 313*207*832/312/188/828 removes its 19.39 megahertzes of coming in of conversion.Last clock signal can reduce or frequency division removes to provide the clock of one 10.76 megahertz with a factor 4, and can supply with other parts of emission layer.In this aspect of the invention, digital unit that any one side of the buffer 208 of interleaver inputs or outputs and of the prior art comparing, be to do comparatively simply,, and do not need to consider matching problem with the pulse string mode operation in continuous pattern because these parts can operate.
Fig. 6 represents the clock of one 19.39 megahertz, and this clock can obtain from data (resemble receive in others of the present invention or revise) or from a local oscillator.The use of a local oscillator guarantees the continuous operation of trellis encoder, no matter transmit losing or transmitting loss of clock in the signal of signal.In fact, under losing (code signal), also can use this machine clock to remove to drive the Reed-Solomon encoder from the situation of the signal of transport layer.Because at least one standard-required emission layer of announcing continues to launch a signal (normally pseudo-random signal), even original encoded signal is lost, also can keep the Reed-Solomon encoder in operation, provide the data necessary signal to remove to keep a transmission signals.
In another embodiments of the invention that also have, if adopted a digital signal processor (" DSP ") that enough disposal abilities are arranged, whole Reed Suo Luomeng codings, data interlacing and lattice code and frequency translation can be finished in the DSP of a series of one or more suitable programmings, and this DSPs has been provided needed clock.
Fig. 8 represents a speed conversion device circuit, this circuit comprises one by the circuit 570 of 141 shuntings, the signal that this circuit 570 receives a clock signal (for example signal of one 19.39 megahertz) and frequency division is provided to a phase detector circuit 572, then deliver to loop filter 574, this filter drives the voltage controlled oscillator 576 of a thermal compensation.The output of TXCO576 offers a buffer and feeds back to one by the circuit 580 of 313 shuntings, and this circuit 580 also is connected with phase detectors 572.TXCO576 has a centre frequency at needed output frequency (i.e. 43.04 megahertzes), and one+/-3 hertz track, this track are arranged is the maximum frequency tolerance of carrier frequency in the DTV of standard system.
Be in operation, need only the input that a clock frequency appears at circuit, and the frequency of this signal be in the needed limit range of system, the clock of 43.04 megahertzes that produced will be allowed to input signal is followed the tracks of.If the frequency change of input signal has exceeded limit range.TXCO576 can not run out of its track yet, and will limit in desired characteristic range and keep output frequency.

As everyone knows, the signal that often non-linear introducing is exaggerated of signal amplifier.Making can linearisation by such nonlinear amplifier amplifying signal, is to make input signal distortion in advance in one way as everyone knows, and this mode is to make distortion in advance opposite with the added effect of nonlinear of amplifier just.Figure 12 is that (amplitude of expression signal and the relation of frequency) has the input signal of form among Figure 12 (A) by a transfer function distortion in advance as shown in Figure 12 (B) (or revising in advance).After amplifier was added on the input signal of revising in advance to the enlarge-effect shown in Figure 12 (C), the amplifying signal of revising the back gained was shown in Figure 12 (D).For further instruction, in Figure 13, express as shown in figure 12 same signal and effect, but this block graphics is represented in frequency domain.
The method of revising in advance known to having been found that is subjected to the frequency response of amplifier and the restriction of system bandwidth.Being used in the correction result in advance of erase amplifier distortion, is that the input circuit that is exaggerated device is revised in phase place and amplitude.These variations in phase place and amplitude have limited the result who eliminates distortion in amplifier.For example, the input circuit of common amplifier often just like among Figure 14 shown in the amplitude and the phase characteristic of frequency range.The variation of these amplitudes and phase place has hindered the unwanted distortion of the whole amplifiers of deletion.Usually the consequential signal that obtains in such circuit is the figure of a frequency domain series as shown in Figure 15.Please note the secondary lobe of the frequency content that produces by uncorrected distortion.
A kind of to be used to delete unwanted non-linear method be between the correction in advance and nonlinear amplifier of prior art, inserts an amplitude and phase corrector.Corrector is transferred to and makes its amplitude opposite with the amplitude and the phase response of phase response and nonlinear amplifier.
Figure 16 is a circuit, and this circuit can improve the response of amplifier system, and it can comprise a nonlinear amplifier 170, with amplifier input circuit 166 and the amplifier output circuit 172 relevant with it.One is used for amplitude to the correction circuit in advance (i.e. linearity corrector) 164 of input be used for the in advance correction circuit (i.e. a phase corrector) 162 of phase place to input, can be under the mode of routine for specific amplifier 170 non-linear with the frequency range adjustment of being paid close attention to.Frequency response and phase corrector 166 are between linearity corrector 164 and the amplifier input circuit 168, and are adjusted and compensate input circuit, make that the cascade of parts is 1 to the final result of (adjuster 166 and circuit 168).Thus, corrected signal can fully be compensated in nonlinear amplifier 170 in advance.
Please note in the circuit among Figure 16 that phase corrector 162 is before linearity corrector 164.This is the preferred disposition of these adjusters, because if the order of these adjusters conversely, the adjustment that amplitude is revised in advance can produce unwanted variation in the correction in advance of phase place.These unwanted variations are to eliminate, and still, it is difficult that the adjustment circuit goes to delete unwanted interactional influence.
The amplifier output circuit 172 of nonlinear amplifier 170 usually also can change the frequency and the phase response of whole system.Control this effect, can add one with frequency response correction device 160 go to proofread and correct whole system, for the permeability of frequency and phase response.
Frequency response correction device 160 and 166 can each realize with the piecewise-linear correcting circuit, this circuit can be in a specified frequency scope frequency response and the group delay (or phase place) of corrected signal.These adjusters must be able to be accomplished: (1) revises the characteristic of amplitude to frequency, and irrelevant with phase place (delay); (2) revise the characteristic (so-called " group delay ") of phase place (delay) to frequency.In a preferred embodiment, the frequency response correction device will be realized each performance of these regulations independently.
Phase corrector 162 can realize in a piecewise-linear correcting circuit that this circuit can be revised the phase transfer function of a signal as the function of revising an incoming level.The amplifier that is used for Figure 16 circuit can be intended to the level of an input signal is increased to more any device of high level, but has non-linear and discontinuity in its transfer function usually.Such amplifier can be solid-state (for example ambipolar a, mos field effect transistor, photosensitive metal-oxide semiconductor (MOS), diamond dust etc.) or may be a vacuum tube (ionic tube for example, tetrode.Prionotron etc.).Amplifier input circuit 168 can be the input circuit that is included in amplifier usually, input matching circuit for example, filter, cavity, circulator etc.The output circuit 172 of amplifier can comprise the output circuit of amplifier usually, output matching circuit for example, filter, cavity, circulator etc.
Be used for this group adjuster of this aspect of the present invention, can be designed as from phase corrector 162 and linearity corrector 166.Such Correction circuit generally can be designed to produce the required pre-distorted signals with the unusual anti-coupling of amplifier.Designed linearity and phase corrector, followed frequency response correction device to design subsequently, because it will proofread and correct the error relevant with frequency that is caused by amplifier input circuit in the linearity corrector back.At last, can be designed to eliminate error in the total transfer function that comprises the amplifier output circuit at the frequency response correction device of signal flow the beginning part.
Figure 17 represents that the parts identical with Figure 16 indicate with identical reference number, can know in prior art systems, revises in advance normally to finish at an intermediate frequency.The calcspar of this aspect of the present invention can make into as shown in Figure 17, and wherein frequency mixer (or converter) 174 is placed in advance between the correcting part and nonlinear amplifier 170.Can offer frequency mixer 174 with signal, go signal transformation to one a new frequency that is exaggerated from a frequency reference 176.Frequency reference 176 can comprise an oscillator, and tuning circuit, the device of outside reference or any routine or circuit go to supply with a reference frequency.
Accurate FREQUENCY CONTROL requirement, this requirement proposes the DTV broadcasting station, to guarantee and the lowest interference of other channel, just requires intermodulation product, and frequency stability and control give special concern.One is used to obtain a system of satisfied FREQUENCY CONTROL as shown in the functional block diagram of Figure 18 and 19, the figure shows a typical place, produced TV signal (for example studio) (Figure 18) in this place, and be broadcasted (for example transmitter scene) (Figure 19) in this place TV signal.Figure 18 represents that the studio audio/video can be supplied with the MPEG-2 encoder 180 of a routine from multichannel and the TV signal alternating signals source, and this encoder utilizes the clock reference 182 of an outside in a kind of mode of routine signal to be encoded.Clock reference 182 can be the clock source of any high stable, particularly the clock source being convenient to receive, place, for example gps signal of a global positioning system in the distance.Encoder 180 can provide the decoder of an inside, so that a monitor signal is provided for the audio frequency-televimonitor 184 of this machine.Coded television signal is supplied with the conveyer 186 of system of a great alliance (GRAND ALLIANCE), and this device will turn to the MPEG-2 signal format of coming in " transfer layer " needed suitable form of great alliance system.In other words, the conveyer of great alliance (GA) can (by a selectable switch) receives a signal from the MPEG-2 signal generator of an outside.The formative signal of transport layer can offer multiplexer 188, and this multiplexer carries out multiplexed to the signal of transformatization and other data and provides multiplexed data to transmitter 190, is used to be transmitted into a broadcast transmitter scene.Along some parallel path, " TV of standard " vision signal or signal can be transformed to the form of numeral by the converter to numeral of a simulation, and digitized vision signal can offer the compressor reducer 194 of a NTSC4/1 with its corresponding digital audio signal.Compressed digital NTSC signal is provided for multiplexer 1888, is used for carrying out multiplexed with the formatted signal of transfer layer and being used for launching by transmitter 190.Each encoder 180, transport layer device 186, multiplexer 188, A/D192 and compressor reducer 194 are to be locked on the common clock benchmark 186.If clock reference is to obtain from well-known global positioning satellite system (or any identical existing systems stabilisation), the 1 megahertz reference signal that is provided by satellite system can be provided in the studio.(produced) DTV signal and digital NTSC signal like this by transport layer device 186 all locked, is used for the effectively scene that is transferred to transmitter of numeral.Because the DTV signal is locked into public reference clock, multiplex operation can be finished with the NTSC signal of numeral in a synchronous mode.
Figure 19 represents that when multiplex signal arrives the transmitter scene it can be carried out multichannel decomposition (the forward error correction signal that this demultiplexer can use transmitter 190 to provide) by demultiplexer and be provided out as DTV and two data flow of NTSC.The DTV signal can the formatted broadcasting that is used for DTV, and amplified by an exciter 200, power amplification and upconvert, and broadcast away by one pair of suitable antenna 204 at last.The NTSC signal can be decoded to base band and pass through conventional devices broadcasting by a ntsc decoder 208.Demultiplexer 198, exciter 200, each all is locked into a common clock benchmark 212 power amplifier and up-converter 202 and ntsc decoder 208.
Clock reference 212 at the transmitter scene is preferably selected and the clock reference 182 of the on-the-spot usefulness in studio is public (Figure 18).For example two scenes can be with the reference signal of identical global positioning system.By using identical reference signal (for example gps signal of 10 megahertzes), the DTV signal is locked into identical stabilization signal source with the NTSC signal.As a result of, NTSC monochrome signal (at 3.58 megahertzes) is locked into this frequency source of stabilized frequency source and will reduces and send the DTV pilot signal and send similitude and/or interference intensity between the NTSC colour signal.
Also can public other stable clock reference signal go to realize advantages more of the present invention at scene, studio and transmitter scene.For example, if transmitting near the STL between transmitter scene, studio and transmitter very much, the scene, studio just can eliminate, and clock signal can transmit between studio and transmitter with the method for routine.
If needs are arranged, this is illustrated in the less several of whole parts relevant with clock reference (CLK REF) among Figure 18 and Figure 19, need link independent (or relevant) clock reference.If DTV exciter 200 and transmitter (power amplifier and upconvert 202) only use a public clock reference, resulting adjacent the disturbing with co-channel (adjective) of this embodiment of the application of the invention just can improve.In addition, by use a public clock reference in many places, advantage of the present invention can be used to many occasions more widely.If many exciters and transmitter use a public stable benchmark, satellite-signal for example, each satellite-signal can produce a NTSC and DTV signal, this signal can not only reduce the interference with produced simultaneously TV signal, can also reduce with the interference of other signal that produces in other occasion, the appointed channel of other occasion because the inaccuracy of frequency may cause interference in addition.
