In this paper, We designed the multi-stage amplifier having high gain/low noise characteristics for terrestial repeater of direct digital satellite broadcasting system. In the design the amplifier, we optimized the parameters to have the stable operation between gain, noise figure and stability. The first stage of amplifier can be specified low noise impedance matching, 2nd stage to 5th stage show constant gain and stable operation and final stage of amplifier shows high gain impedance matching. As a result of experiment at the frequency of digital satellite terrestial, show 68dB gain under 2,4dB noise figure and 63dB dynamic range in the 11.7GHz-12.7GHz frequency range, it is a good agreement of communication channel amplifier requirements for satellite terrestial repeater.

Many communications and broadcast media have emerged by the rapid development of wireless communication and broadcasting technologies, so the radio resources are insufficient for these services. DMB can use the regional integrated channel due to the SFN broadcasting network, so DMB uses the frequency efficiently. However, the domestic DMB uses the existing analog TV frequency band and uses a plurality of channels in some areas because of the interference with the analog TV. However, the broadcasting of the analog TV was terminated, so the channel reallocation of the terrestial DMB is necessary for the efficient use of frequencies. This paper proposes the channel reallocation method of the terrestial DMB and analyzes the change of transmission and reception environments by using simulations.

As illegal distribution of the terrestial DTV broadcast program occurs very frequently in on-line, the needs to protect broadcast program have increased. In this paper, a new approach to implement a system for terrestial DTV broadcast program protection based on program protection information(PPI) is proposed. In our approach, the broadcast program is recorded with encryption according to redistribution condition of the PPI and packaged into a file with key information and PPI together. And we also define a set of domain protocol for supporting user fair-use of broadcast program. In the proposed system, copy control can also be provided by process of home domain management. Implementation results show that our system can protect broadcast programs with efficiency and can support conditional distribution within home domain in order to satisfy user fair-use.

In this paper, we propose a frame structure for modified ATSC transmission systems which is used for a terrestrial 3D HDTV broadcasting. The modified ATSC transmission systems [2] see the potential of increasing a transmission capacity at reasonable TOV (Threshold of Visibility) by modifying channel codes of conventional ATSC systems and varying modulations. We use PN symbols (Pseudorandom Noise) in a guard interval which is used for avoiding the ISI (Inter Symbol Interference) to estimate and compensate the time-varying multi path channel effectively with a maximum transmission payload. With PN symbols in the guard interval, a CIR (Channel Impulse Response) in a time domain can be estimated and a compensation in a frequency domain can be achieved for the accurate channel estimation and compensation. The prosed frame structure is applied to the modified ATSC systems and computer simulations are performed for SER (Symbol Error Rate) performances in TU (Typical Urban)-6 Channel.

Due to the development of network and device, it is called mobile age that boosts various distribution routes of multi-media content and it constructs a new digital content consumption trend. N-screen is one of the new-introduced examples in the digital age and broadcasting industry believes it as a crisis and challenge as well. It becomes a ubiquitous multi-media environment that people watch multi-media content everywhere and any time they want to and competition happens beyond the boundaries such as network industry, terminal industry, pay TV market, traditional terrestrial TV, etc. And then how should the broadcasting service prepare for the N-screen business? The present research proposes a few terrestial broadcasting content strategies in the multi platform environment. First, instead of N-screen, it proposes multi platform, especially One Source Multi Platform(OSMP). Second, so-called 'Integrated Terrestrial Broadcasting OSMP Alliance(IBPA)' must be founded. Third, IBPA should support multi-tasking UX for viewers to have rich experience. Last, it becomes more important and necessary to support local terrestrial broadcasting service for public service in the multi platform age.

This paper proposes a signaling and multiplexing mechanism in service-compatible 3DTV broadcasting for guaranteeing backward-compatibility with legacy DTV. Recently, 3DTV experimental broadcasting services are being developed around advanced countries and the standardization of service-compatible 3DTV broadcasting which is able to provide high-quality stereoscopic videos in progress. Based on experimental results, we confirm that proposed method can be used as a common technology and a reference model for stereoscopic video transmission over terrestial, satellite and cable DTV platforms in 3DTV broadcasting service and system development.

Since starting of terrestrial digital broadcasting in 2001, there has been discussion on introduction of multiple broadcasting services, one of advantages of digital broadcasting. In the mean time, task force on terrestrial multiple channel experimental broadcasting was formed with government organizations, broadcasting companies and household appliance companies in Oct. 2013, and terrestrial multiple channel experimental broadcasting was started between Jan. to April, 2014. Based on this experimental result, EBS started 2HD MMS experimental broadcasting first in Korea on Feb. 11, 2015. This study was carried out in consideration of operation of 2 HD channels in existing 6MHz bandwidth based on MPEG-2 codec with development of compression technology. A study on image quality optimization was carried out and applied to 2HD MMS experimental broadcasting through application experiment of variable bit rate and change according to 1080i and 720p scanning type.

The RF Module which can be adjusted for a digital terrestrial and multi standard(DVB-C, ISDB-T, DVB-H) reception is developed. The Module by single conversion does divide a broadband(45MHz~860MHz) broadcasting channels into three-bands(UHF, VHF_HIGH, VHF_LOW) to satisfy some electrical performances such as image signal rejection, phase noise, IF flatness etc and digital reception specifications such as analog and digital adjacent channel protection, co-channel protection which is important in environment with co-existence both analog and digital broadcasting systems.

In this paper, we examined the possibility of the transmission capacity increase by an extension and a modification of ATSC 8-VSB transmission system[1] for broadcasting a 3D HDTV services through 6 MHz terrestrial channel. First we examined the performance and the limit of conventional ATSC 8-VSB transmission system. After that LDPC & BCH code are employed instead of conventional RS & TCM code and the transmission parameter is founded for the capacity increase with resonable TOV by varying the code-rates and increasing the modulation constellation. We do not consider the perfect backward compatibility for maximum transmission capacity increase like DVB-S2 system.
