Patent ID: 7653058

Claim:
A wireless transceiver for receiving and processing multi-channel broadcast signals and Ethernet signals from an Ethernet PON (Passive Optical Network), comprising: a wireless STB (Set-top Box) transmitter for wirelessly transmitting the broadcast signals and Ethernet signals; wherein the wireless STB transmitter comprises: at least one tuner for receiving the broadcast signals; an Ethernet switch including one WAN (Wide Area Network) port and at least two LAN (Local Area Network) ports in order to provide an Ethernet port, the Ethernet switch outputting the Ethernet signals; a Logical Link Control/Physical Layer (LLC/PHY) for performing data-encapsulations of the broadcast signals and the Ethernet signals through an isochronous channel and an asynchronous channel, respectively, and outputting the encapsulated data; a Protocol Adaptation Layer (PAL) for matching protocol differences between the LLC/PHY and a Medium Access Control/Physical Layer (MAC/PHY) with the encapsulated data and outputting the encapsulated data; and the MAC/PHY for receiving the encapsulated data from the PAL and transmitting wirelessly the encapsulated data.
