    Abstract: Low-noise block downconverter (LNB) of a satellite dish receives a request from a satellite broadcast signal receiver to transmit a signal for a channel to the receiver. If the channel requested by the receiver is different from a channel requested by another satellite broadcast signal receiver, the LNB in response provides a signal for the channel requested by the receiver at a frequency that is allocated to the receiver. If the channel requested by the receiver is the same as a channel requested by another satellite broadcast signal receiver, the LNB provides an instruction to the requesting receiver for the receiver to retune to the frequency used for the other satellite broadcast signal receiver. The requesting receiver can then receive the signal for said channel which is being provided by the LNB at the frequency used for the other satellite broadcast signal receiver.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a communication system. The communication system includes a radio wave receiver; a transmission node that transmits data; and a reception node that receives the data from the transmission node. The transmission node changes a transmission rate of the data so that a notch point at which a spectrum of a communication waveform decreases overlaps with a frequency selected by the radio wave receiver.

    Abstract: It is possible for the content distribution side to control the conditions of target viewers for distributions without depending on the functions specific to a receiver. Content which is broadcast, a content profile, and a program are received. In an initial step of the program, prestored viewer profile information is read. All the content profiles and the contents are downloaded temporarily. Next, the profile information is read, and then a process of matching the profile information with the viewer profile information is performed. When it is determined that they do not match, a matching process for the next content profile is performed. If, on the other hand, they match, at the next step, the content is stored. The viewer reproduces the stored content at an appropriate time.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a digital video broadcasting-terrestrial (DVB-T) system and modulation method thereof. The system comprises a transmission module and a receiving module. The transmission module modulates a video signal to a DVB-T signal. The receiving module receives the DVB-T signal via a transmission line and demodulates the DVB-T signal to the video signal, and at the same time, monitoring the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) or bit error rate (BER), and quantizes them to a reference data. The receiving module transmits the reference data to the transmission module through the same transmission line. The system can determine a control parameter according to the reference data to set the modulation parameter of the DVB-T signal.

    Abstract: To limit use of content, when a source receives a request for transmitting content from a sink, the source performs an authentication process. When the authentication is successful, the source transmits to the sink key information necessary for decrypting the encryption applied to the content. The sink can receive the content by receiving the key information and by decrypting the encryption applied to the content by using the key information.
