MULTI-STANDARD CHANNEL DECODER FOR REAL-TIME DIGITAL BROADCAST RECEPTION

摘要

A multi-standard channel decoder for real-time digital broadcast reception has a plurality of processors connected to a sample-based communication unit for sample-based processing and connected to a block-based communication unit for block-based processing. The channel decoder is able to use the same processors to channel decode sample-based transmissions such as 8-VSB broadcasts and block-based transmissions such as COFDM broadcasts.
