In this paper, we propose an emergency wake-up alert system (EWAS) for providing accurate and rapid emergency information. The proposed system can provide an emergency wake-up alert service without an additional frequency allotment by utilizing the guard band of the Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) Terrestrial Digital Television (DTV) system. The design target of the proposed system is to match the indoor reception coverage of EWAS with the outdoor reception coverage of the ATSC DTV system. To achieve this, the proposed system should be about 35.65 dB more robust than the ATSC DTV system. The simulation results show that the proposed system offers an emergency wake-up alert service supporting a data rate of up to 23 bps.

The purpose of this study is to suggest improvement direction of the delivery system through researching the information accepter' recognition and use about warning delivery system. According to the survey, they listen to civil defence alert broadcasting on mass media more than personal media. The frequency of alert broadcasting is significantly very low and they listen to it below 5 times in a year. Also, nearly one in four people says its siren and contents are indistinct. Alert broadcasting's siren shows less memory retrieval and sorting capability than others and the result shows that they will act based on the broadcasting instead of reacting to prior knowledge in real situations. Finally, the result shows that improving public awareness through education and publicity more than social system buildup is important in civil defence alert system.

A present experimental broadcasting is service compatible to delivery left view and right view of a dual stream for backward compatible with 2D device. It has a limitation of quality for a transmission of dual stream in terrestrial bandwidth 19 Mbps. This paper proposes adjunct terrestrial-3D broadcasting system which can provide a stable quality beyond a limitation of quality from fixed bandwidth. It proposes the system that composes a high quality stereoscopic video through synchronizing Real time broadcasting and Non Real Time broadcasting Regardless of the terrestrial bandwidth. So this paper tries to analyze each technique of Real-Time broadcasting and NRT broadcasting, and verify this proposal through the technique of an algorithm that we can implement NRT adjunct high quality 3DTV system and the experiments.

An efficient intra mode selection algorithm is proposed to reduce the computational complexity of inter frames for the H.264|AVC video encoding system. We propose an adaptive thresholding algorithm based on distribution characteristics of the sum of the absolute differences (SAD) of the best inter mode. Through comparative analysis, the proposed algorithm shows better speed up ratio with a negligible quality loss.

RF 혼신보호비는 동종 혹은 상이한 전송시스템간의 주파수 공유가 요구되는 상황에서 각 전송시스템의 운용 및 채널 배치에 반드시 필요한 정보로써, 이미 PAL, SECAM 방식의 아날로그 TV와 Eureka 147을 포함한 디지털방송과의 혼신에 대해서는 미국과 유럽, 일본에서 측정결과를 발표한 상태지만, NTSC방식과 Eureka 147 방식과의 혼신보호비에 대해서는 아직까지 측정이 이루어지지 않은 상태이다. 따라서 NTSC TV방식을 사용하고 있는 국가에서 Eureka 147 방식을 DAB 방송표준으로 도입하고자 할 때 혼신보호비를 필요로 할 것이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 유럽의 디지털오디오방송(Digital Audio Broadcasting; DAB) 시스템인 Eureka 147방식에 대한 NTSC방식의 아날로그 TV 음성신호의 RF 혼신보호비 측정결과를 제시하고자 한다.

단일 애플리케이션 송출 환경에서의 데이터방송에서는 특정 시간, 특정 채널에 대해 하나의 애플리케이션만을 서비스할 수 있었다. 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위하여 2005년 KBS(Korean Broadcasting System)에서는 ACAP(Advanced Common Application Platform) 규격을 따르는 범용적인 멀티 애플리케이션 구조/운용 방법을 개발하고 이를 지원하도록 데이터방송 시스템을 개선하였다. 멀티 애플리케이션 서비스가 제공되면 방송사가 특정 시간, 특정 채널에서 하나 이상의 애플리케이션을 자유롭게 편성하여 서비스하므로 사용자는 다양한 애플리케이션을 기호에 맞게 선택, 이용할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 추후 실제 본 방송에 적용하기 위하여 개발한 실험용 멀티 애플리케이션을 중심으로 살펴보고자한다. 애플리케이션 측면에서 멀티 애플리케이션의 핵심은 일반 애플리케이션들에 대한 관리를 담당하는 매니저(혹은 루트) 애플리케이션이므로 이에 대한 기능 및 구조에 대하여 먼저 살펴 보고, 방송 송출 시스템 및 수신기에 대한 정합 실험을 위하여 개발된 멀티 애플리케이션 개발 현황에 대하여 살펴 본다.

This paper considers technological requirements to broadcast digital television signals using distributed frequency network (DFN) in the advanced television systems committee (ATSC) transmission system and proposes distributed translator (DTxR) to meet such requirements. In the DFN, DTxR uses different frequency from main transmitter, but same among DTxRs. In addition, this paper introduces digital signal processing (DSP) techniques, which consist of demodulation, equalization, transmitter identification (TxID) generation and insertion, and modulation, to implement DTxR.

As the scale of broadcasting systems gets bigger and the functionality of broadcasting devices becomes diverse, networking facilities are being incorporated within recent broadcasting devices. Although networked devices can perform many of the additional functionalities, an effective management becomes a difficult issue. Therefore, it is essential to provide an automated management system for monitoring and controlling distributed broadcasting devices across a network. SNMP (Simple Network Management System) is one of the enabling technologies that we could adopt when we build such a system. However, SNMP-based solution has its limitations. In this paper. we propose the TMS800 system, which is a metadata-based device management system on top of SNMP framework. The system is specifically designed for the management of distributed broadcasting devices. It makes it possible to monitor not only the status of devices, but also the videos in the form of still images. Remote control and real-time notification facilities are also provided.

This paper presents an effective algorithm for inserting an MPEG-2 transport stream (TS) into a Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) ensemble without any bandwidth waste in a Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (DMB) transmission system. The key technologies of this algorithm include packet rate control and program clock reference correction, which are important for TS processing. The proposed algorithms are applied to the various DMB transmission systems based on Eureka-147, and the performance of the proposed algorithm is confirmed through the experimental DMB broadcasting.

The era of convergence is being applied to all areas of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). The convergence of broadcasting service and communication service almost occurs on smart devices including smartphone. The smart hybrid Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (DMB) is a typical example of the convergence of broadcasting and wireless communication service. The hybrid mobile broadcasting service can support seamless video, 3D, high quality, and additional data services based on network connection between the broadcasting and wireless network. The gateway and terminal (including apps on the smartphone) take the role of the main components on the hybrid service. This paper presents the service concept, main components structure, the implementation of gateway and terminals, and field test to the urban areas for the mobile hybrid system.
