The invention provides an indoor wireless coverage transmission system based on DTV-VLC. The system comprises a power supply, a plurality of LED lamps, a PLC coupler, a home multimedia gateway and a DTV signal source, wherein the LED lamps, the PLC coupler and the home multimedia gateway are electrically connected with the power supply; when receiving a broadcast signal of a wired household DTV signal source, the home multimedia gateway decodes at first to obtain DTV program data stream, and then carries out coded modulation and framing according to a DTMB standard again; when receiving a ground DTMB signal, the home multimedia gateway directly forwards the ground DTMB signal through a VLC (visible light communication, Visible Light Communication) channel; finally, downlink signals of the LED lamps are demodulated and decoded by a DTV-VLC receiving terminal unit in a receiving unit; in a wireless coverage transmission process of the DTV-VLC, a TDS-OFDM signal from the home multimedia gateway and acquired by demodulating the DTMB is coupled to a power line by the PLC coupler at first, is transmitted on the power line to drive the LED to transmit a light signal carrying information, and if collected by a light sensor of the receiving terminal at last.
