SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING A COMMON CABLE SIGNAL USING A LOW-PASS FILTER TAP

摘要

A receiver (100) uses a low-pass filter tap (102) to extract from common cable signal (122) a first signal (124) that is communicated to in-band tuner (106) and a second signal (126) that is communicated to out-of-band tuner (110). The use of a low-pass filter tap (102) presents significant cost advantages over directional couplers and uses signal power more efficiently.
