Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is a multi-carrier modulation technique which is very much popular in new wireless networks of IEEE standard, digital television, audio broadcasting and 4G mobile communications. The main benefit of OFDM over single-carrier schemes is its ability to cope with severe channel conditions without complex equalization filters. It has improved the qua...

Internet broadcasting and streaming contents have recently been attracting a great deal of attention, despite their inadequate content quality. The demand for such services is projected to continue to increase in the near future, and streaming contents are expected to play a major role among applications for the next-generation Internet [1] [2]. With the further development of DVTS, it will cer...

With rapid developments in communications technology and digital multimedia, there has been increasing demand in recent years for realistic broadcasting technology beyond conventional audio-visual media. In response to this demand, this paper presents an example of the construction of a haptic-enabled broadcasting system based on the MPEG-V standard that was established recently. The constructi...

We propose a PC-based real-time software Digital Video Broadcasting-Terrestrial (DVB-T) receiver, including hardware, driver, and software parts. The total data rate of DVB-T is much greater than that of Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB). A more efficient signal processing algorithm than our previous software DAB receiver is necessary to improve the speed of the software part of the DVB-T receiv...

Radio broadcasting technology in this era of compact disc is expected to deliver high quality audio programmes in mobile environment. The Eureka-147 Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB) system with coded OFDM technology accomplish this demand by making receivers highly robust against effects of multipath fading environment. In this paper, we have analyzed the performance of DAB system conforming to...

This paper presents the potentialities of the new digital television in UHF (Terrestrial Digital Video Broadcasting– DVB-T) in supporting novel tele-learning applications, such as the “virtual classroom”, where the lecturer and the students are virtually present in the same classroom from their own premises. Based on the ATHENA FP6-507312 concept for the transition from analogue to digital terr...

Audio is an area in television broadcasting and production that causes apprehension with some engineers because of its complexity and the care needed to get it right in design, installation, and operations. With the transition to digital television (DTV), there is a new level of uncertainty because the requirements for audio are far more advanced and complex than before. Yet digital audio provi...
