embodiment 1
[0217]FIG. 1 shows the entire arrangement of a signal transmission system according to the first embodiment of the present invention. A transmitter 1 comprises an input unit 2, a divider circuit 3, a modulator 4, and a transmitter unit 5. In action, each input multiplex signal is divided by the divider circuit 3 into three groups, a first data stream D1, a second data stream D2, a third data stream D3, which are then modulated by the modulator 4 before being transmitted from the transmitter unit 5. The modulated signal is sent up from an antenna 6 through an uplink 7 to a satellite 10 where it is intercepted by an uplink antenna 11 and amplified by a transponder 12 before being transmitted from a downlink antenna 13 towards the ground.
[0218]The transmission signal is then sent down through three downlinks 21, 32, and 41 to a first 23, a second 33, and a third receiver 43 respectively. In the first receiver 23, the signal intercepted by an antenna 22 is fed through an input unit 24 t...
embodiment 2
[0322]A second embodiment of the present invention is featured in which the physical multi-level arrangement of the first embodiment is divided into small levels through e.g. discrimination in error correction capability, thus forming a logic multi-level construction. In the first embodiment, each multi-level channel has different levels in the electric signal amplitude or physical demodulating capability. The second embodiment offers different levels in the logic reproduction capability such as error correction. For example, the data D1 in a multi-level channel is divided into two, D1-1 and D1-2, components and D1-1 is more increased in the error correction capability than D1-2 for discrimination. Accordingly, as the error detection and correction capability is different between D1-1 and D1-2 at demodulation, D1-1 can successfully be reproduced within a given error rate when the C / N level of an original transmitting signal is so low as to disable the reproduction of D1-2. This will...
embodiment 3
[0341]A third embodiment of the present invention will be described referring to the relevant drawings.
[0342]FIG. 29 is a schematic total view illustrating the third embodiment in the form of a digital TV broadcasting system. An input video signal 402 of super high resolution TV image is fed to an input unit 403 of a first video encoder 401. Then, the signal is divided by a divider circuit 404 into three, first, second, and third, data streams which are transmitted to a compressing circuit 405 for data compression before further delivered.
[0343]Similarly, three other input video signals 406, 407, and 408 are fed to a second 409, a third 410, and a fourth video encoder 411 respectively which all are arranged identical in construction to the first video encoder 401 for data compression.
[0344]The four first data streams from their respective encoders 401, 409, 410, 411 are transferred to a first multiplexer 413 of a multiplexer 412 where they are time multiplexed by TDM process to a fi...
