Filed:

Feb 28, 2006

Appl. No.:

11/276453

Inventors:

Michael Simon - Frederick MD, US

Assignee:

Rohde & Schwarz GmbH & Co., KG - Munich

International Classification:

H04L 5/12

US Classification:

375265, 375354

7532857, May 12, 2009

Filed:

Jun 7, 2006

Appl. No.:

11/422791

Inventors:

Michael Simon - Frederick MD, US

Assignee:

Rohde & Schwarz GmbH & Co. KG - Munich

International Classification:

H04H 1/00

US Classification:

455 301, 4555501, 375267, 375316, 370276, 370280

Abstract:

Systems, methods, apparatus are provided for providing to a receiver a time diverse digital signal corresponding to a service including receiving a digital signal containing a service content and receiving a digital signal containing a non-deterministic content. The service content is inserted into a first predetermined number of data packets in a first predetermined number of data frames deterministically. In addition, a first portion of the non-deterministic content is inserted into a second predetermined number of data packets in the first predetermined number of data frames. A copy of the first predetermined number of data packets is generated. The first predetermined number of data frames is broadcast over a distribution network. The copy of the first predetermined number of data packets is inserted into a second predetermined number of data frames and a second portion of the non-deterministic content is inserted into the second predetermined number of data frames. The second predetermined number of data frames is broadcast after a predetermined time.

US Patent:

7672399, Mar 2, 2010

Filed:

Mar 1, 2006

Appl. No.:

11/276473

Inventors:

Michael Simon - Frederick MD, US

Assignee:

Rohde & Schwarz GmbH & Co., KG - Munich

International Classification:

H04L 27/00

US Classification:

375299

Abstract:

Systems, methods, apparatus and computer program products are provided for signaling to a receiver an availability of a service and a deterministic mapping of a service content corresponding to the service. A modulator receives a digital signal and generates a data frame from the digital signal, where the data frame is divided into segments, where at least one grouping of the segments contains the service content. The modulator modulates at least one grouping in accordance with the deterministic mapping. A receiving device receives a digital signal containing the availability of a service, the deterministic mapping corresponding to the service, and the service content, and performs an operation on the service content in accordance with the deterministic mapping.

Filed:

Feb 28, 2006

Appl. No.:

11/276434

Inventors:

Michael Simon - Frederick MD, US

Assignee:

Rohde & Schwarz GmbH & Co. KG - Munich

International Classification:

H04L 5/12

US Classification:

375265

Abstract:

A system, method, apparatus and computer code are provided for producing coherent symbols from digital RF transmitters. A multiplexer receives a digital signal containing content data to be broadcast from the digital RF transmitters and inserts a first initialization packet into the digital signal, where the initialization packets implicit position in the digital signal will signal data framing in the digital RF transmitters. Where the initialization packet contains stuff bytes for deterministically initializing Trellis coders in the digital RF transmitters. A transport stream emitter transmits the digital signal to the plurality of digital RF transmitters.

Appl. No.:

11/420384

Inventors:

Michael Simon - Frederick MD, US

Assignee:

Rohde & Schwarz GmbH & Co. KG - Munich

International Classification:

H04L 5/12

US Classification:

375265

Abstract:

A system, method, apparatus and computer code for communicating a training sequence for initializing an equalizer in a digital receiver are provided including receiving a digital signal containing data to be broadcast from a digital RF transmitter and inserting the training sequence into the digital signal deterministically such that a predetermined sequence of symbols are communicated to the receiver.

US Patent:

8149817, Apr 3, 2012

Filed:

Feb 1, 2008

Appl. No.:

12/024238

Inventors:

Michael Simon - Frederick MD, US
James Spilker - Woodside CA, US
Scott Furman - Menlo Park CA, US

Assignee:

Rohde & Schwarz GmbH & Co. KG - Munich

International Classification:

H04J 3/06

US Classification:

370350

Abstract:

Systems, apparatus, methods and computer program products are provided for causing a dataframe to be emitted at an air interface of an antenna. A memory stores a transmission to antenna delay value (TAD). An offset calculator calculates an offset value based on an epoch of a global timebase generator and the transmission to antenna delay value (TAD). An interface controller in communication with the offset calculator communicates a segment synchronization signal and a field synchronization signal based on the offset value.

Assignee:

Rohde & Schwarz GmbH & Co. KG - Munich

International Classification:

H04L 5/12

US Classification:

375265, 375260

Abstract:

Producing coherent symbols from a plurality of digital RF transmitters is achieved by selecting data bytes corresponding to mobile-handheld encapsulation (MHE) packets and setting trellis coders to a predetermined state when a predetermined number of bits of the data bytes enter a corresponding trellis coder.
