In this paper, we propose a new algorithm to store streams seamlessly using fixed servers when DMB receivers cannot receive signals properly due to weak signals. This algorithm includes mechanisms for synchronization and playout by retransmitting streams stored in the server. The results showed that signals were normally generated for 95.5% of the delivery failure cases caused by radical changes or turbulence of signals and that the new mechanisms allow AVs played seamlessly even though there were slight stops.

In this paper, a system for wake-up method for T-DMB AEAS is introduced. Wake-up function is important in emergency alert service. But there was no AEAS receiver that has the method. Google C2DM is efficient method for wake-up in android platform. So this paper suggests wake-up method in android smartphone with T-DMB by C2DM. This method will be an alternative plan until native broadcasting wake-up technology.

Terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting(T-DMB) is one of mobile broadcasting services, and the commercial service was started in December 2005 in Korea. The performance targets of T-DMB are providing VCD(video CD) quality video and FM radio quality audio. In recent years, the researches for providing high quality video or audio service on T-DMB environments have been being carried out. To provide high-quality video or audio service, some additional data should be transmitted to the receiver as well as T-DMB video and audio data. Since the data rate for one T-DMB program is low, it is important to transmit the additional data at a low bit rate. In this paper, we propose a packetizing method for efficient transmission of the additional data to provide multichannel audio service on T-DMB environment.

The Digital Multimedia Broadcasting(DMB) system is developed to offer high quality audio-visual multimedia contents to the uses by the various portable terminals in the mobile environment. Integrated complex reception platform is required to receive multimedia broadcasting services transmitted from various transmission media. In this paper, we present the design and implementation technic for providing the both of terrestrial and satellite DMB services simultaneously using the same hardware platform. The implemented complex receiving terminal to accommodate these DMB services simultaneously need composed of it RF module. it baseband module, it complex control module and the complex de-multiplexer module. The complex control module is designed using uClinux operating system. The complex de-multiplexer, which perform the functions of the address decoder and each DMB stream de-multiplexer, is implemented. with FPGA device. The implemented platform is tested in a real environment and its performance is satisfied with required performance criteria.

In this paper, we designed detachable T-DMB receiver antenna on the windshield of the car. Designed antenna is composed of only copper and feeders. To escape completely from driver's sight, it exists edging of windshield. Proposed antenna by considering body of properties and characteristics of the antenna input impedance have T-DMB frequency band(174~216 MHz). Proposed flexible antenna with Common Mode Stub is satisfied characteristics less than -5 dB antenna input return loss regardless of installation position on windshield.

A new transmission system is necessary for the Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (DMB) service in Korea. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a new architecture for the implementation of a DMB transmission system based on Eureka-147. We describe the design and implementation of the Ensemble remultiplexer, which is essential to the proposed system for remultiplexing ETI frames and MPEG-2 transport streams. The proposed system provides a solution with high flexibility and low cost for multimedia broadcasting service. The functions of this transmission system have been verified by using our DMB receiver and other related systems.

Terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting (TDMB) is a method of bringing multimedia images, radio, internet, and television to portable devices through terrestrial digital radio transmissions. TDMB related educations being carried out in colleges are focusing on developing firmware which enables users to choose a wanted service. TDMB transmission frame is made up of synchronization channel (SC), fast information channel (FIC), and main service channel (MSC). Services such as video, audio and date are transmitted in the form of subchannel in the MSC. FIC carries information related to each services and subchannels. This paper presents a TDMB frame analysis simulator for analyzing and displaying FIC data on PC. TDMB frame analysis simulator contains functions such as controlling TDMB receiver through USB, establishing the frequency, bringing FIC to PC, displaying ensemble ID and levels, and displaying informations related to services and subchannels. In addition to that, this simulator has a function of being able to store FIC date and subchannel data. This simulator being developed with C++ is expected to be used to view those data visually so that it helps students to understand the TDMB system better and bring about the educational motivation.

In this paper, we proposed spreading code slicing technique for efficient transmitter detection in AT-DMB system with single frequency network. At the transmitter, the spreading code for transmitter identification inserted using slicing technique on forehead of null symbol and then transmitted. In this point, it requires high correlation characteristic spreading code. At the receiver, peak to peak value calculated by correlation process before signal demodulation. The transmitter information by proposed technique is employed to implement the single frequency network (SFN) which is proposed for solving a frequency inefficiency problem of the MFN. The results of the paper can be applied to wireless multimedia digital broadcasting system.

In this paper, a down-converter that can work for L-band RF front-end of DMB receiver is designed. Since DRK-02, a reference for our work, had been designed for a stationary receiver, not for mobile one, the supply voltage is set relatively high of 8.5V. We improve it with 3.3V and save design space and cost by employing only one Mixer and IF_Amp comparing to the reference one in which two Mixers and two IF_Amps are used.
