In this paper, we have studied the 8 YSB (8 Vestigial Side Band) method which is decided as the standard of modulators for next generation digital TV System. In developing digital TV System, one of the difficult problems is how digital signal can be transmitted to the receiver without any phase distortion. But, phase error is liable to occur by imperfect design, circumstance variation and device degradation. These characteristics result in distortion of 1,0 signal of modulator and interference in adjacent channels. In particular, the interference in modulator of a high power amplifier result in serious problems in adjacent channels. Here we analyzed problems of phase error which are occurred when 8 levels digital signals are modulated to If signal. And we suggested phase error compensation algorithm and discussed the results for adaptation of the algorithm

The development of the latest emotional recognition and multimedia technology has changed the traditional broadcasting system. The previous broadcasting system, which was operated by the terrestrial broadcasters, is now transformed to the viewer-centered and bidirectional broadcasting through the convergence of internet, mobile and smart TV. In this paper, smart-phone application for estimating human emotion(sadness, anger, depression) has been developed and emerged with smart TV, thereby we can present broadcasting service for enhancing the sense of common humanity among people of same group. If there is friend in the depression, we can bring comfort to him by inviting one for TV program what I watch and having a honest talk with facial avatar or emoticon. The proposed emotional broadcasting service inter-working with smart-phone application can give feeling of belonging and happiness to the people suffering from the blues, and it can prevent him from attempting suicide. In addition, smart-phone based emotional broadcasting service can be expended to program recommendation service customized to user's emotion, emotional LED lighting service to maximize the sense of reality and home shopping service taking advantage of the mood of customer.

Many communications and broadcast media have emerged by the rapid development of wireless communication and broadcasting technologies, so the radio resources are insufficient for these services. DMB can use the regional integrated channel due to the SFN broadcasting network, so DMB uses the frequency efficiently. However, the domestic DMB uses the existing analog TV frequency band and uses a plurality of channels in some areas because of the interference with the analog TV. However, the broadcasting of the analog TV was terminated, so the channel reallocation of the terrestial DMB is necessary for the efficient use of frequencies. This paper proposes the channel reallocation method of the terrestial DMB and analyzes the change of transmission and reception environments by using simulations.

In this paper, we make plans for facilities, the 8-VSB DTV transmission system, installed in the near future, based on presently NTSC TV operating it. First of all we estimate transmission power for analog NTSC, digital 8-VSB terrestrial broadcasting and the effective condition of optimal receiving power result from it. It's also to estimate optimal receiving condition by using Longley-Rice's Field Strength calculating method that is to guess a profile between transmitting station and many receiving points. The 8-VSB DTV Propagation aims to high-speed transmission rates of 19.39Mbps datum to enable HDTV(High Definition Television) at NTSC 6MHz bandwidth. First of all, an optimization of field strength between transmission station and receiver must deal with considerable. Because of these reasons, 8-VSB DTV transmission needs effective extension for NTSC TV service coverage. Finally we present the transmitting output that is expected in changing NTSC VHF to DTV UHF for maintaining the transmitting output of NTSC TV that is equal to 8-VSB DTV in service coverage.

In this paper we consider technological requirements to broadcast digital television signals using single frequency networks (SFN) in the Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) transmission systems and propose equalization digital on-channel repeater (EDOCR) that overcomes the limitations of conventional digital on-channel repeaters (DOCRs). Since there are no forward error correction (FEC) decoder and encoder, the EDOCR does not have an ambiguity problem. In addition, since an adaptive equalizer in the EDOCR removes multi-path signals, additive white Gaussian noise (A WGN), and feedback signal due to low antenna isolation, the EDOCR may have good output signal quality with high power.

In this paper, we simulated disaster broadcast service using terrestrial UHD additional data. We looked at nine functions(warning alarm, location-based information, multilingual, re-viewing the title of breaking news, evacuation knack video, CCTV, clip video, wake up, automatic channel switching) by referring to ATSC 3.0 standards. Analyzing the advantages and problems of the proposed disaster broadcast. Expert interviews were conducted after a demonstration and explanation of terrestrial UHD disaster broadcast. They said that the problems with the technology were difficulty in using, obstruction of viewing, content creation problems, and problems with advertisers. In addition to the lack of simulation-based research, this research has provided an insight into the technology by showing it in a visible way. This helped shape the advantages and problems of technology.

This study is to analyze the differences of consumer preferences between the terrestrial DMB and satellite DMB in various segment groups by using survey data. We categorized the consumers by the DMB preference patterns into four groups, i.e., non users group, terrestrial only users group, satellite only users group, dual users group. And then we analyzed the differences among these four segment groups in demographic characteristics, behavior patterns on telecommunication and broadcasting services, life-style, attitudes to DMB services.

The study empirically analyses a linear relationship between terrestrial advertising rates and viewer ratings. Consistent with the results of preceding studies, the present study finds a convex relationship between standard advertising rates and viewer ratings. However, after all other sales practices are taken into account, a linear relationship is documented between per-minute advertising revenue and viewer ratings. Absent the exact functional relationship between the two, it is hard to evaluate accurately how efficiently or inefficiently the current GS System has operated, but it tells us that a certain level of market mechanism prevailed within the system. The findings are consistent with the 1 Public-1 Private Media Representative alternative among many alternatives currently sought by the KCC should we accept the premise that the public aspect is as equally important as, if not more important than, the efficiency aspect of terrestrial broadcasting.

The Terrestrial DTV service compliant with ATSC has been advancing for years. In KBA(Korean Broadcasters Association), a multi-channel service was broadcasted on air during the period of the 2006 FIFA World Cup Germany with the various type of MMS(Multi Mode Service) using MPEG-2 encoding method. MMS Service can provides not only one HD channel but also serveral additional services within 6MHz bandwidth. Using digital video compression technology(MPEG-2), many various programs such as HDTV, SDTV, Audio and Data are able to be transmitted within the same bandwidth. From November 2009, KBS has been preparing an advanced MMS service, 'Korea-View' which has both methods of encoding, MPEG-2 and H.264 that is compliant ATSC mobile standard, A/153. Korea-View is a kind of multi-channel broadcast service to provide one HD and 3 SD programs with the bandwidth of 6MHz. Terrestrial multi-channel service is required to focuse on expanding viewer service. Such Terrestrial multi-channel services will contribute to transferring to digital broadcasting and to extending the viewers' welfare. Due to advances in digital technology, Pay-TV channels has increased to hundreds. Even though digital switchover is being proceeded, terrestrial broadcasters have been unable to deliver multi-channel services. In this paper, technical features and differences of MMS and Koreaview will be analyzed regarding terrestrial multi-channel broadcasting services, and the politic direction will be proposed in accordance with introduction of future service.

본 논문은 차세데 3D-TV 방송을 위해 수정된 ATSC (Modified Advanced Television Systems Committee) 시스템 [1]에서 파일럿 (Pilot)을 이용한 채널 추정 대신, PN 시퀀스 (Pseudo-Noise Sequence)를 이용한 채널 추정 방식의 문제점에 대하여 2가지 방법으로 연구하였다. PN 시퀀스를 이용하여 채널을 추정하는 TDS-OFDM (Time Domain Synchronous - Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing)시스템은 QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) 변조 방식을 사용하기 때문에 수신측 PN 시퀀스의 위상 변화가 일어나지 않는다. 하지만 수정된 ATSC 시스템에서 사용하는 VSB (Vestigial Side Band)변조 방식에서 직교위상 (Quadrature) 채널을 통해 전송되는 값은 동위상 (In-Phase) 채널을 통해 전송되는 값의 단순한 힐버트 변환 (Hilbert Transform)에 의해 생성되어 불규칙한 위상 변화가 발생한다. 따라서 수정된 ATSC 시스템에서 채널 추정을 위해 PN 시퀀스를 사용하게 된다면 상관 (Correlation) 특성을 잃어버릴 것이며 올바른 채널 임펄스 응답 (Channel Impulse Response)을 얻을 수 없다.
