Embodiment Construction

[0030] The present invention will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which are shown exemplary

[0031] Example.

[0032] FIG. 2 is a block diagram of an open cable host 200 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

[0033] With reference to Fig. 2, open cable main frame 200 comprises first tuner 201, second tuner 202, QPSK / QAM 16 transmitter (TX) 203, receiver (RX) 204, demodulator 205, DOCSIS modem 206, multiplex Resolver 207 , CPU 208 and memory 209 .

[0034]A signal received via the first tuner 201 is demodulated by the demodulator 205 and input to an in-band (INB) processor 212 of the POD module 210 . The signal received via the second tuner 202 is input to the CPU 208 via the DOCSIS modem 206 . The RX 204 converts the received data into a continuous bit stream at a certain bit rate and sends the continuous bit stream to the OOB processor 211 of the POD module 210 . This continuous bit stream is mainly us...

Abstract

Provided are a method and apparatus for diagnosing a CableCARD-related status and performing proper processing according to the diagnosis result in an OpenCable system; an OpenCable host; and an OpenCable reception apparatus. The CableCARD-related status diagnosis and processing apparatus includes: a diagnosis unit diagnosing the CableCARD-related status or a network-related status; and a processor performing processing according to the status determined from the diagnosis result. Therefore, by installing a software-processing logic against critical errors or definite faults in a television or a set-top box in an OpenCable system, it is possible to diagnose a CableCARD-related status and quickly handle the CableCARD when an error is generated in the CableCARD, thereby reducing costs to service providers and providing an improvement in service quality to users.

Description

[0001] This application claims priority to Korean Patent Applications No. 10-2004-0062773 filed on Aug. 10, 2004 at the Korean Intellectual Property Office and No. 10-2005-0053604 filed on Jun. 21, 2005, which applications The disclosure of is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0002] Apparatus and methods consistent with the present invention relate to diagnosing cable card related conditions and performing appropriate processing based on the diagnostic results in the Open Cable System, Open Cable Host, and Open Cable Sink devices. Background technique [0003] As many broadcast systems have become digital, the use of digital broadcast content has increased. Therefore, the importance of copyright protection technology and user authentication for protecting digital broadcasting contents produced by investing a lot of money and manpower is also increasing. If the embedded CAS (Conditional Acce...
