Abstract: A method and system for displaying digital broadcast signals are disclosed. The method displays a broadcast signal, transmitted from a portable terminal having a digital broadcast receiver, on an external device having a decoding unit. When the external device transmits a digital broadcast playback request and selected channel information, the portable terminal controls the digital broadcast receiver to select a broadcast channel according to the selected channel information, demultiplexes a broadcast signal of the selected broadcast channel, and transmits the demodulated broadcast signal. The external device classifies the demodulated broadcast signal as audio, video, and broadcast information, decodes the classified signals and plays them back. When a communication event is generated while the portable terminal demodulates and transmits the broadcast signals of the selected broadcast channel, the communication event is transmitted to the external device and a wireless communication route is established to process the communication event.

Abstract: L'invention concerne la génération de plasmons de surface sur une couche métallique (18) disposés sur une surface extérieure d'un guide d'ondes optiques (11), par utilisation de la lumière (22) réfléchie depuis l'intérieur du guide d'ondes optiques (15). La lumière réfléchie peut être une partie réfléchie de lumière guidée circulant le long du guide d'ondes optiques et peut être une partie rétro réfléchie (p. ex. rétro réfléchie obliquement) de la lumière guidée. La partie réfléchie de lumière guidée peut former un mode optique de rayonnement, qui est utilisée pour exciter des plasmons de surface et qui est également couplée au mode guidé restant de la lumière (21, 23) d'où ladite partie réfléchit provient. Le couplage du mode de rayonnement et du mode guidé fait que les changements du mode de rayonnement provoquent des changements considérables dans le modes guidé de lumière. Lesdits changements du mode de rayonnement peuvent se produire en raison du couplage du mode réfléchi sur les plasmons de surface qu'ils excitent au niveau de la couche métallique.
