Embedded Linux Porting on TV System

상용 TV 시스템상에 리눅스 커널 탑재

As control programs are becoming larger and more complex, the capacity of a microprocessor in a TV set needs to have a CPU with 32 bits or more. Also the embedded system such like a digital TV set uses RTOS (Real Time Operating System)[1]. LGE Co. has developed a digital TV system that displays HD (High definition) signal with the AR7TDMI CPU and the commercial RTOS[2]. This thesis made improvements on problems caused by porting embedded LiNUX in limited size memory (2 mega byte) instead of RTOS[3]. The advantages of changing to embedded LiNUX take away running OS royalty that needed to make TV sets[4].
