In this paper, a terrestrial transmission system is proposed for the next generation digital television (DTV) system by applying a hybrid multi-input multi-output (MIMO) technology based on linear dispersion codes (LDCs). The digital video broadcasting-2nd generation terrestrial (DVB-T2) system adopted a space time block code (STBC) for improving receive performance. However, the data rate of STBC is not increased in proportion to the transmitter. The hybrid STBC scheme utilizes several STBC transmission blocks for increasing data rate. It is possible to increase the data rate and performance in the receiver by utilizing LDC. The performances of the proposed and conventional hybrid STBC schemes are evaluated through computer simulations.

In this paper, a DVB-T2(Digital Video Broadcasting-the 2nd Generation Terrestrial) receiver is designed under a USB-type windows environment, and the baseband frames for MPEG2-TS stream(File or Ethernet Modes) are analyzed for verifying the receiver. In addition, the performance of the BICM(Bit Interleaved Coding & Modulation) module in the receiver is analyzed in terms of PLP(Physical Layer Pipe) and L1(Layer 1) signals.

This paper is concerning about the demapping method using the pilots inserted in transmitter in COFDM(Coded Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) demodulator which is the standard transmission method of terrestrial digital TV system in Europe(DVB-T). We have presented a simple and efficient method of CSI(Channel State Information) generation and demapping method using CSI. The CSI was derived from the pilot carriers inserted with comb-type among the received active carriers, which is defined as a SNR. From the simulation results for the 3 different constellations of the receiver, we could confirm that the system performance comparing with conventional soft decision method has been improved under DVB-T standard Rayleigh and Ricean fading channel.

In this study, we examine the components and characteristics of channel brands, the renewal process of channel brands, and the competitiveness of SBS Subusu News and MBC 14F, online channels of Korea's leading terrestrial broadcasting company. We conducted in-depth interviews with staffs YouTube news channels such as Subusu News and 14F. First, examining the brand components and characteristics of SBS's Subusu News and MBC's 14F vertical channel, Subs News maintained its direction through the renewal of the logo type, graphic characterization, emoticon production, and campaign design production. 14F focused on brand renewal of the logo type and modification of thumbnail design to reveal the identity of the channel brand. Subusu News and 14F have achieved success through a spin-off approach that considers content relevance, expanding their brand extension. As a result of analyzing the competitiveness of the channel brand, Subusu News maintained its identity as a combination of B-class sensibility and journalism, while 14F positioned itself as a channel that delivers useful information content.

In this paper we propose an efficient method to broadcast digital television signals using Single Frequency Networks (SFNs) in the Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) transmission systems. Since the proposed schemes to synchronize multiple transmitters minimize the changes from the conventional ATSC system, the hardware complexity for the changes is very low. Our simulation results show that the proposed scheme makes less than 0.1 dB degradation at the threshold of visibility (TOV： BER= 3$\times$$10^{-6}$) in the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. It is possible to reduce the performance degradation by increasing an initialization period of the proposed scheme.

In ISDB-T, which is Japanese digital terrestrial TV specification based on OFDM technology, 6MHz bandwidth is divided into 13 segments. Twelve segments (full-seg) are used for high definition broadcasting for fixed receivers and one segment (one-seg) for mobile receivers. Though one-seg supports high speed mobility by using QPSK modulation, it is not suitable for large display mobile devices because of its low data rate. Full-seg using 64QAM modulation also suffers from its low mobile performance. In this paper, mobile performance of ISDB-T full-seg receiver is evaluated by applying sub-carrier interference removing scheme, high speed mobile channel estimation scheme and antenna diversity scheme.

This paper attempts to conceptually examine the potential of IPTV(Internet Protocol Television). First, this paper reviews the concept of a bridging telecommunication service and a gap-filling telecommunications service. Second, the current status of various emerging telecommunications services including mobile WiMax, called WiBro, and both satellite and terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting service, called DMB are comprehensively analyzed. Based on those analysis, this paper analyzes whether IPTV is regared as a bridging telecommunications service or a gap-filling telecommunications service and examine the potential growth possibility of IPTV. Finally, the suggestions for policy makers are discussed.

In this paper we propose and analyze a novel modulation and pre-equalization method to minimize signal processing time delay for the Equalization Digital On-Channel Repeater (EDOCR) in ATSC (Advanced Television Systems Committee) terrestrial digital TV system. The proposed modulation method uses Equi-Ripple (ER) filter coefficients instead of conventional Square Root Raised Cosine (SRRC) after coefficients for VSB (Vestigial Side Bands) pulse shaping. And the proposed pre-equalization method calculates pre-equalizer filter coefficients by using baseband signal as reference signal and demodulated repeater output signal, then generates a new VSB pulse shaping filter coefficients by convolutioning ER filter coefficients and pre-equalizer filter coefficients. The newly generated pulse shaping filter does not have minimized time delay by adjusting the number of pre-taps of the filter, but also compensates linear distortions caused by ER filter and mask filter.

차세대 유럽형 디지털 지상파 TV 표준인 DVB-T2 (Digital Video Broadcasting; a 2nd Generation Terrestrial)는 아날로그 TV시대의 끝을 알리는 ASO(Analogue Switch Off)에 의해 새롭게 확보될 방송 주파수를 통해 다채널 HDTV 서비스와 다양한 데이터 서비스를 제공해줄 것으로 예상된다. DVB-T2는 DVB-T에 비해 전송효율을 30% 이상 향상시켰으며 기존 송신 인프라와 수신안테나를 그대로 사용할 수 있어 상업화 조건을 고루 갖추고 있다고 볼 수 있다. 본고에서는 이러한 DVB-T2 End-to-End 체인 참조모델을 간략히 소개하고 송신기술에 대해 개괄적으로 설명한다.
