3D 영화의 상업적 성공으로 인하여, 기존 컨텐츠와 차별화된 고품질 컨텐츠에 대한 사용자의 요구가 증대되고 있다. 하지만, 방송의 특성상 기존 방송망을 유지하면서 새로운 컨텐츠를 제공하기 위해서는 각 매체별 채널 용량 증대에 대한 기술 개발이 선행되어야 한다. 최근에 지상파 DMB 방송과 동일한 주파수 영역 내에서 채널 용량을 증대시킬 수 있는 차세대 지상파 DMB (advanced t-dmb, AT-DMB)와 관련된 국내 표준화가 완료 되었다. 이에 본 논문은 T-DMB와의 역호환성을 유지하면서도 추가 서비스를 제공할 수 있는 AT-DMB 시스템을 간단히 소개하고, 수신기 개발 시 고려해야 할 T-DMB 전송프레임과 AT-DMB 전송 프레임의 차이점과 구조에 대해서 논한다. 특히 추가서비스를 제공 할 수 있는 수신 플랫폼의 설계 방법을 제안한다. 마지막으로, AT-DMB 송출 환경에서 제안된 수신 플랫폼 처리 방법에 따른 수신 테스트 및 성능을 검증하였다.

기존의 T-DMB 표준 문서에서는 T-DMB 기반의 비디오 서비스를 무료 서비스로 규정하여 스크램블링을 수행할 수 없도록 제한 사항을 두고 있다. 그러나, 최근의 T-DMB 수익 구조 개선의 노력과 차세대 T-DMB(AT-DMB) 기술의 등장으로 T-DMB 기반의 유료 비디오 서비스에 대한 관심이 점차 증대되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 유료 서비스 관련 기존 T-DMB 표준 문서들을 분석하여, T-DMB 채널을 통한 유료 비디오 서비스를 제공하기 위한 효율적인 시그날링 및 스크램블 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 기존의 비디오 서비스와 역호환성을 유지하여 이미 보급된 T-DMB 수신 단말에 문제점을 야기하지 않는 것을 특징으로 한다.

A DMB in an ubiquitous age means that every one can share informations anytime anywhere through 'his own TV' or 'TV in his own hands'. A DMB of digital broadcastings makes the most use of informations through ubiquitous. But it has several problems just owing to retransferring existing broadcast programs in contents. So hereafter, DMB broadcasting must be produced with contents suiting its properties. After all, it is important to analyze exactly properties and service fields of medium of DMB to make an establish production direction of its contents. This paper analyzes such properties and presents overall image-contents production direction. This includes appropriate program developments and visual expressions through proper running time, camera angle and walking. The contents harmonized with its properties will give more familiarities to DMB users and it will be a new culture. In the end, it is expected that a share of DMB audience will be more higher.

The Terrestrial Digital Multimedia Broadcasting (T-DMB) system supplies high quality audio comparable with VCD in 7 inch display and high quality audio comparable CD at the mobile reception environment T-DMB will launch commercial service at the middle of 2005. However the bandwidth for audio data and the number of channels are restricted to 128 kbps and 2 respectively in the current T-DMB standard because of the limitation of available bandwidth for multimedia data. This Paper Proposes a novel media processor structure for providing multi-channel audio contents oyer T-DMB system allowing backward compatibility with the legacy T-DMB receiver. Furthermore. we also Propose an adaptive receiver structure to supply optimal audio contents on various speaker configuration in T-DMB receiver. To provide multi-channel audio contents allowing backward comaptilbity with the legacy T-DMB receiver, the additional data for multi-channel audio are defined as a dependent stream of main audio stream. The OD strucure for control an additional multi-channel audio elementary stream is proposed without changing the BIFS of the legacy T-DMB system.

The advanced T-DMB is the digital broadcasting technique upgrading the T-DMB which has low effective data rate compared with other things. Since it applies the hierarchical modulation, it has maximally twice as much the effective data rate of a T-DMB, so it can provides the video service of high quality and many stations more than a T-DMB. Therefore, the study for DAB service on the AT-DMB environment will be advantageous better than the previous studies for it on the T-DMB environment. So, this paper proposes the method of the channel allocation for DAB service on the Advance T-DMB system environment and presents the results of the interference analysis in order to verify that.

As the T-DMB (Terrestrial Digital Multimedia Broadcasting) has been actively launched, all the service providers are focusing on finding a new business model using a variety of data services as well as video service. The middleware technology for data broadcasting service, which was presented due to such necessity, known as DMB MATE (Mobile Application Terminal Environment), provides a running environment of the applications and APIs so that the various data applications can support high-level functionalities for the interactive data service. In this paper, in order to effectively provide the data service under restricted channel environment of T-DMB, we introduce a service technology and an interactive data broadcasting system using the DMB MATE, specifically proposing a design method of T-DMB MATE receiver capable of the presented DMB MATE service. Finally, the performance of developed system is confirmed through the T-DMB data broadcasting experiment under a variety of conditions.

디지털 멀티미디어 방송(Digital Multimedia Broadcasting :DMB)는 디지털 라디오 방송 시스템에 기반으로 한 최초의 휴대용 TV 서비스이다. 최근 제 78차 MPEG 회의에서 DMB 콘텐츠에 대한 멀티미디어 응용 포맷으로 DMB MAF에 대한 논의가 진행되었다. DMB MAF는 DMB 콘텐츠에 대한 ISO 파일 포맷을 기반으로한 DMB 단말기 간의 상호운영성의 지원 및 저장을 지원하기 위한 파일포맷이다. 본 논문에서는 DMB MAF를 위한 MPEG-21 IPMP 및 REL을 이용한 보호관리 기술에 대해 설명한다.

본고에서는 동일 주파수 대역폭에서 T-DMB(Terrestrial-Digital Multimedia Broadcasting)의 가용 채널용량을 확장하기 위해 개발중인 Advanced T-DMB(AT-DMB)의 기술에 대해 소개한다. AT-DMB는 계층변조, MPEG-4 SVD(scalable video coding) 및 MPEG surround 오디오 기술을 이용하여, 기존 T-DMB와의 역호환성을 보장하면서 다채널 혹은 고품질의 서비스를 제공하는 것을 목표로 하고 있다. 향후 AT-DMB 기술 개발이 완료되어 상용서비스가 실시될 경우, 증대된 서비스 채널을 통해 다양한 비즈니스 모델의 모바일(mobile) 방송 서비스 제공이 가능할 것이며, 나아가 T-DMB 해외 시장 확산에도 기여할 것이다.

Recently, DMB service markets experience a rapid change with terrestrial DMB test-broadcasting for the nation-wide coverage and paid interactive data broadcasting being offered utilizing TPEG and BIFS technologies. This warrants a reexamination of a consumers' adoption intentions for DMB service. This paper uses a survey data set to analyze DMB adoption intentions and the choice between terrestrial DMB and satellite DMB services according to preferred contents and other media usage characteristics. Empirical results show that consumer who prefer TV, music, and movie contents are more likely to adopt DMB service, whereas consumers with high intentions for HSDPA subscription are less likely to adopt DMB service. This implies that continuing development of killer application and the analysis of substitutes or complements of other media are crucial for the increase of DMB adoption intentions. It is found that the more consumers prefer sports, movies and entertainment/game and put higher values in the quality of the contents, the more likely they adopt satellite DMB service. Meanwhile, the more consumers prefer TV, drama and news contents, and are sensitive to the subscription fees, they are more likely to adopt terrestrial DMB service. Therefore, it seem that consumers' DMB adoption between terrestrial and satellite services is crucially related with types and characteristics of contents offered.

AT-DMB was developed to raise the transmission rate of existing T-DMB with backward compatability. The transmission and hierarchical video service technique were legislated as Korean TTA standards, and other application service techniques including data services are being developed for the commercial service. In this paper, we consider the power of transmission power level of signals in Advanced Terrestrial Digital Multimedia System according to the constellation ratio. And we propose a new scheme for normalization of transmission signal power level in AT-DMB system. Adopting this scheme, the signal power level of hierarchical modulated signal can be uniform in AT-DMB system both for B Mode and Q Mode.
