This paper is about frequency allocation of LTE Base Station(BS) in the spare band which is generated by DTV transition. In the case of frequency allocation of LTE BS in adjacent band with DTV channel 51 among the spare band, the guard bands that requires for no interference between LTE and DTV system were calculated. As a result, 5.5 MHz of guard band for LTE BS and 2 MHz of guard band for DTV receiver were suggested based on interference analysis between LTE BS and DTV BS, respectively.

Digital broadcasting system has various affecting factors unlike analog broadcasting system, and has possibility of no signal reception in case of errors due to characteristics of digital system. And, digital broadcasting system has monitoring system for error occurrences handling various factors. ATSC mobile DTV system uses legacy frequency and provides mobile broadcasting services, and also requires monitoring systems for monitoring online broadcasting services and reporting to administrator about interference or influence with legacy systems, and error situations. In this paper, we propose efficient monitoring system which monitors online broadcasting status of ATSC mobile DTV, reports on poor signal reception, video streaming failures to administrator, and maintains reliable digital broad ca sting system.

KBS and ETRI have co-developed an advanced DOCR(Digital On Channel Repeater) which has an equalization and pre-distortion function and can be operated properly under lower isolation of reception and transmission antennas. Field tests of the DOCR were performed twice in Suwon area in 2004 and 2005. This paper summarizes the characteristics of the DOCR system and field test results in Suwon. The changes in DOCR coverage according to the different generations of ATSC DTV receivers were also analyzed. Basic concept to apply the DOCR system in DTV broadcasting networks in Korea is suggested through test results.

In Korea, transition to digital TV broadcasting started at the metropolitan Seoul area and has expanded to the metropolitan area in 2004. However, until 2010 analog NTSC broadcasting will co-exist with digital TV. In this situation, digital TV may have the same channel as an analog NTSC broadcasting. To remove the effect of the analog NTSC intereference, DTV receivers adopt an NTSC rejection filter. In this paper, analysis on properties of the filter, such as a rejection property and noise performance degradation, is presented.

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.

Stereoscopic video for 3DTV service is emerging as a main content of the Post-HD age in the multimedia industry, and also it starts a ripple effect to build infrastructure for 3DTV service throughout the related industries such as creating contents, consumer electronics and the broadcasting. Thus, "Technical Specification of Stereoscopic Video over MPEG-2 TS for 3DTV Service" for providing a standard for 3DTV broadcasting transmitter and receiver interface is under development by the 3DTV WG8061 in ITA, Korea. This paper provides verification of the functionalities, problems and future work of the above specification with designed test-bed. Through making a test bed, this paper try to verify not only the functionality of standard but also backward compatible for the present technology and abstract problems to would be reviewed and supplemented.

In this paper, low power on-channel DTV repeater is implemented to improve the fringe area of terrestrial DTV broadcasting services and its effectiveness is verified by field trials. System requirements of on-channel repeater are drive from received signal model and gain transfer model. Implemented on-channel DTV repeater has coverage of about 1km with 10mW/MHz output power. Experimental results show that implemented system can effectively improve small/medium size DTV fringe areas in Korea.

In this paper, worldwide standards and regulations on in-band/out-of-band emission characteristics of DTV broadcasting equipments are reviewed, and emission mask requirements of several equipment types are analyzed. Out-of-band emission mask draft suitable for DTV repeater is proposed and its usefulness is evaluated and verified in the experiments. Using the proposed standard, small-sized and cost effective DTV repeater can be implemented to broaden DTV broadcasting coverage for digital switchover.
