Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for transmitting a frame in a communication system that generates layer 2 (L2) signalling information related to an L2 service, that checks whether a baseband frame (BBF) exists that is divided from BBFs forming a frame and respectively included in the frame and other frames, that constitutes the frame such that a baseband packet (BBP) corresponding to the first BBF of the BBFs includes the L2 signalling information if there is no BBF included in the respective frame and the other frames, and that transmits the same.
Abstract:
A transmitting apparatus and an operating method for the apparatus in a multimedia system are provided. The operating method includes inputting at least one network layer packet, generating a link layer packet based on the at least one network layer packet, and transmitting the link layer packet. The link layer packet includes a header including information indicating a packet type of the at least one network layer packet, information indicating whether the link layer packet includes a single network layer packet, and information indicating an identifier related to the at least one network layer packet.
Abstract:
A method of transmitting a complex content packet in a broadcasting and communication system is provided. The method includes creating an Forward Error Correction (FEC) source block by using at least one MMT Processing Unit (MPU) included in at least one MPEG Media Transport (MMT) asset, and transmitting the FEC source block, wherein the FEC source block is generated so that a boundary of the at least one MPU and a boundary of the FEC source block do not deviate.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a device and method for transmitting/receiving a packet in a communication system. The present invention includes: the processes of determining at least one MPEG media transport (MMT) asset protected by an application layer forward error correction (AL-FEC); determining at least one FEC flow for transmitting the at least one MMT asset; determining the MMT asset transmitted from the at least one FEC flow in each case and determining an FEC coding structure to apply to the at least one FEC flow; producing at least one source flow by dividing the MMT asset transmitted from the at least one FEC flow on a transmission unit basis; and producing and transmitting at least one parity flow by performing AL-FEC encoding on the at least one source flow according to the FEC coding structure.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for decoding received packets in a broadcasting and communication system is provided. The method includes reconstructing a source block by arranging source packets received from a sender on a two-dimensional array having a width of a given symbol size, and determining at least one Erased Subdivided Encoding Symbol Index (E-SESI) corresponding to at least one source packet which is not successfully received in the reconstructed source block, determining a symbol unit for Forward Error Correction (FEC) decoding based on the at least one E-SESI, and performing FEC decoding on the reconstructed source block depending on the determined symbol unit.

Abstract:
An apparatus and method for transmitting and receiving an Application Layer-Forward Error Correction (AL-FEC) packet in a multimedia communication system are provided. In the AL-FEC packet transmission method, an AL-FEC packet transmission apparatus generates AL-FEC packets, and transmits the AL-FEC packets to an AL-FEC packet reception apparatus, wherein each of the AL-FEC packets includes an AL-FEC codeword symbol and an AL-FEC header, the AL-FEC codeword symbol is one of AL-FEC codeword symbols included in an AL-FEC codeword block, and the AL-FEC header includes order information indicating an order of an AL-FEC codeword symbol into which the AL-FEC header is inserted among the AL-FEC codeword symbols included in the AL-FEC codeword block.
Abstract:
A method of a transmission device in a multimedia system comprises the steps of: detecting a request for changing first-type data into second-type data while the first-type data is being played at a given point in time; and transmitting, before the second-type data is played, information necessary for replaying data, among the first-type data, played prior to the given point in time, and/or data, among the second-type data, played prior to the given point in time.
Abstract:
A transmitting apparatus, a receiving apparatus, and a method of signal processing are provided. The transmitting apparatus includes at least one processor configured to implement: a packet generator which generates a packet including a header and a payload, based on an input stream; and a signal processor which signal-processes the generated packet. The header includes a base header, and the base header includes various fields indicating at least one of a packet type, and a value indicating that the packet transmits one single complete input packet, a segment of an input packet, or a plurality of input packets. The fields included in the base header may also indicate presence of an additional header and a substream identifier.
Abstract:
A transmission device is disclosed. The transmission device comprises a signal generation unit for generating a broadcast signal including a service, and a transmission unit for transmitting the broadcast signal through at least one radio frequency (RF) channel. A broadcast stream transmitted through the RF channel includes signaling for the service, the signaling for the service including information indicating whether the service is transmitted through a plurality of RF channels, and information indicating whether the broadcast stream transmitted through the RF channel contains an essential portion of the service.
