Embodiment Construction

[0017] figure 1 is a typical block diagram depicting a traditional unidirectional RF (radio frequency) transmitter / receiver system. Such as figure 1 As shown, in the case of a unidirectional RF transmitter / receiver system with multiple RF transmitters 2, 4, 6 and 8 and RF receiver 10, received from four sources 12, 14, 16 and 18 The signal is transmitted to the RF receiver 10 through four channels, and the user can watch the television 20 according to a selected one of the four channels. This digital broadcast technology modulates a frequency signal based on the NTSC (National Television Standards Committee) standard into an ISM (Industrial, Scientific, Medical) band frequency signal at 2.4 GHz with a bandwidth of 100 kHz, thus forming four channels. However, each channel is used as a transmission medium with the source of a set of broadcast data streams produced by a DVD (Digital Versatile Disc Player) or VCR (Video Recorder).

Abstract

A set-top box system and method for viewing digital broadcasting. The system includes: a plurality of televisions; and a set-top box for receiving a digital broadcast including multiple programs and transmitting a single program selected by a TV viewer's program selection request to the plurality of televisions, including: a memory with a digital broadcast program guide database; The device and the demodulator select and demodulate the digital broadcast of the main channel preset in the memory in the received digital broadcast, and generate the demodulated digital signal as a multi-program transport stream; the controller, by using the multi-program transport stream Group identification information and program guide database to control each sub-channel corresponding to each program selection request; multiple transmission demultiplexers select sub-channels to respond to each program selection request when receiving control signals from the controller , and respectively provide a single program on selected sub-channels; a plurality of single program decoders for decoding the single program; and a transmitter for transmitting the decoded single program.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a communication device, and more particularly, to a set-top box system and a method for viewing digital broadcasts on multiple televisions (TVs) using one set-top box. Background technique [0002] Currently, digital test broadcasting services are being provided so that the demand for high-quality images or high-quality sound is rapidly increasing. In order to watch digital broadcasts on an existing analog TV, a user (ie, a TV viewer) must be equipped with a set-top box on the existing analog TV. However, in the case of watching digital broadcasts using such a set-top box, a user can only watch digital broadcasts on one TV. [0003] A traditional one-way RF (radio frequency) transmitter / receiver (transmitter and receiver) system has multiple RF transmitters and an RF receiver, the signal received from the source is transmitted to the RF receiver through four channels, and the user Ability to watch TV on a selected one...
