About the Book
A ROADMAP FOR IMPLEMENTING THE ATSC
DATA BROADCAST STANDARD The ATSC Data Broadcast Standard provides the means
to transform digital TV signals from plain vanilla audio/video to 57-flavor
broadband digital data delivery, opening a universe of device and service
possibilities. Authored by four of the standard’s lead writers -- Richard
Chernock, Regis Crinon, Michael Dolan, and John R. Mick, Jr. -- Data Broadcasting
is the first guide to the new ATSC standard.
These experts help you:
*Understand the concepts behind standard
provisions for carrying any type of data over MPEG-2 data transport mechanisms
*Implement the standard in real-world
service creation and rollouts
*Enable a new generation of set-top
boxes, hand-held devices, and PC add-in cards for handling both data and
streaming video
*Configure stand-alone data injection
and data injection associated with video and audio programs
*Define the optimal transmittal method
for any type of data
*Resolve system architecture, receiver-reference
design, data categorization, and encapsulation questions
*Solve announcement, and discovery
and binding mechanisms problems
*Avoid implementation pitfalls with
encapsulation examples, illustrated layering, and buffer models
