    摘要: Disclosed is an interactive device for an internet radio station, comprising a content presentation unit and a content selection unit. The content selection unit includes a knob, a selection module, a processing module, an indication module and a communication module. The knob inputs by a user, a channel selection instruction by means of manual rotation; the selection module generates a corresponding electrical signal according to the channel selection instruction; the processing module obtains, according to the electrical signal, a corresponding audio resource from the network radio station and releases the audio resource to the content presentation unit which plays the audio resource. The indication module generates, under the driving of the knob, a state change corresponding to the channel selection instruction. In this way, the user can select the audio resource by rotating the knob, so that the channel selection manner is similar to the traditional radio rotary tuning method.

    摘要: Disclosed is an interactive device for an internet radio station including a content presentation unit and a content selection unit. The content selection unit includes an operation module, a processing module, an indication module and a communication module. The operation module is used by a user to input a channel selection command by means of manual rotation and to generate a corresponding electrical signal. The processing module is used for acquiring corresponding audio resources from the network radio according to the electrical signal and issuing the corresponding audio resources to the content presentation unit which is used for playing back the audio resource. The processing module is further used for driving the indication module to generate a state change corresponding to the electrical signal. Hence, the user may select audio resources by rotating the operation module, so that the channel selection is similar to a traditional rotary tuning method.

    摘要: Exemplary aspects are directed to FM-radio circuitries and systems in which, at the receiving end of a broadcast transmission, circuitry is used set the bandwidth and band position for receiving the desired channel of the broadcast signal based on measured signal properties of immediately-adjacent channel(s). The adjustments to the received channel include bandwidth selection and offset frequency adjustment. These adjustments are, in part, based on USN signal levels as well as modulation symmetry detection which are affected by the modulation level of the desired and other channel(s). Signal processing circuitry such as logic/CPU circuitry, then receives the desired channel, including information carried by the broadcast signal, in response to setting the bandwidth based on the measured signal properties.

    摘要: This technology relates to a reception apparatus and a data processing method for easily implementing circuits on the receiving side.There is provided a reception apparatus including: a demodulation section configured to demodulate packets obtained with respect to each of multiple PLPs included in a broadcast signal; and a processing section configured to process the packets demodulated by the demodulation section. The demodulation section and the processing section are connected with each other via a single interface or interfaces fewer than the number of the PLPs. The demodulation section adds identification information to a specific packet among the packets obtained with respect to each of the PLP, the identification information identifying the PLP to which each of the packets belongs. The processing section identifies the PLP to which belongs each of the packets input from the demodulation section via the single interface or the interfaces fewer than the number of the PLPs, on the basis of the identification information obtained from the specific packet. This technology may be applied to television receivers, for example.
