MOBILE-TERMINAL-ORIENTED TRANSMISSION METHOD AND APPARATUS

摘要

The time slice system has a problem that, since data is burst transmitted, a wait time occurs, during tuning, until a reproduction of a service starts, with the result that zapping cannot be smoothly performed. In order to solve this problem, a first stream for burst transmitting a packet set and a second stream for continuously transmitting a packet at a rate suitable for a transmission rate required for a service are multiplexed with each other and then transmitted. During zapping, the second stream, which is constantly transmitted, is used to reproduce the contents, and after a completion of the zapping, the first stream, in which the packet is burst transmitted, is reproduced.
