Title: Transmitter and receiver using channel bonding
Inventor: SAMUEL ASANGBENG ATUNGSIRI
IPC: H04L25/14
Filed: 2017-02-07
Abstract: A transmitter includes: a data stream partitioner configured to partition a data stream into two or more stream partitions; two or more framing and interleaving units, each of which is configured to form each stream partition after encoding and interleaving for transmission as frames of data; two or more waveform generators, each of which includes a modulator configured to each receive a stream partition and to generate modulated data from the received stream partition for transmission as two or more of the separate RF channels; and a controller. The controller is configured to generate signaling data and to control the two or more framing units to combine the signaling data with respect to the frames of data for transmission in the one of more separate RF channels. The signaling data is for configuring a receiver to detect and to recover the two or more stream partitions from the two or more RF channels and to recombine the two or more streams partitions into the data stream. The signaling data for each of the RF channels includes an indication of bonding with at least one other RF channel and at least one radio frequency displacement between the radio frequency number of the RF channel and at least one other of the two or more separate RF channels A receiver detects a bonded channel which carries a portioned data stream from another channel which carries another partitioned data stream of a data stream. Accordingly the receiver is still able to detect the data stream even if the RF channels have undergone frequency translation for example if transmitted via translator. The invention has particular application in channel bundling for ATSC 3.0 television broadcast systems.
