Disclosed herein are a method for providing an ad-hoc broadcast service based on channel sharing and an apparatus for the same. The method is configured such that a master broadcast transmitter for providing an ad-hoc broadcast service receives a request to share a channel from a new broadcast transmitter, allocates one of multiple subframes, into which the transmission frame of any one broadcast channel corresponding to the ad-hoc broadcast service is divided, to the new broadcast transmitter, and controls the new broadcast transmitter in real time by performing synchronization with the new broadcast transmitter based on reference time information included in a control Physical Layer Pipe (PLP).

Method for providing ad-hoc broadcast service based on channel sharing and apparatus for the same

Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for converting a broadcast signal. The apparatus for converting a broadcast signal includes a demultiplexer unit for receiving a terrestrial broadcast signal and generating a terrestrial signaling signal, a signaling conversion unit for converting the terrestrial signaling signal into a cable signaling signal by parsing the terrestrial signaling signal, a cable multiplexer unit for generating a cable broadcast signal by multiplexing the cable signaling signal, and a cable modulation unit for modulating the cable broadcast signal and transmitting the cable broadcast signal over a cable network.

Apparatus for converting broadcast signal and method for using the same

Provided is apparatus and method for transforming cable channel. The apparatus includes a data mixing unit for receiving and mixing a band data and a first broadband data, to thereby generate a second broadband data of a broadband cable channel, and a channel adapting unit for dividing a band data from the second broadband data received through the broadband cable channel, bypassing the second broadband data to a first subscriber apparatus and transmitting the band data to a second subscriber apparatus.

Apparatus and method for transforming cable channel

The apparatus and method for scrambling high-rate data is disclosed. The apparatus includes a first storing unit for storing a transport stream (TS) inputted from an external device; a common key (CK) generating unit for generating a CK by receiving a control word (CW) from an external conditional access system (CAS); a key scheduling unit for generating predetermined number of keys (KK)s by receiving the CK from the CK generating unit; a plurality of enciphering units for enciphering the TS transmitted from the first storing unit based on the predetermined number of KKs and the CK; a second storing unit for storing the TS enciphered by the enciphering units and outputting the enciphered TS; and a controlling unit for controlling the multiple enciphering units.

Apparatus and method for scrambling high-rate data

A restricted reception device enabling a subscriber receiver to selectively receive broadcasting data transferred via a digital cable broadcasting network, includes: a demultiplexer for receiving broadcasting data and an ECM including a CW from the subscriber receiver, and demultiplexing them, the broadcasting data and the ECM being transferred through an in-band channel; an out-of-band channel signal processor for receiving an EMM from the subscriber receiver, and processing the EMM, the EMM being transferred through an out-of-band channel; a restricted reception processor for descrambling the scrambled broadcasting data using the ECM and the EMM received from the out-of-band channel signal processor; and a remultiplexer for multiplexing the descrambled broadcasting data received from the restricted reception processor, and sending the multiplexed broadcasting data to the subscriber receiver.
