Patent ID: 8643775

Claim:
An ATSC A/153 digital television receiver comprising: a tuner-and-analog front end that tunes to a proper broadcast channel, performs level setting and filtering, digitizes a received analog signal, and outputs a bit stream; a baseband demodulator that receives the bit stream output from the tuner-and-analog front end and performs direct digital down conversion, filtering, symbol timing and carrier frequency synchronization, equalization, and forward error correction, and outputs multiple IP encapsulated and non-IP-encapsulated data streams; a network interface processor that receives the multiple IP encapsulated and non-IP-encapsulated data streams from the baseband demodulator and combines and outputs the data streams into an IP encapsulated data stream that the network interface processor outputs; and a controller that receives the IP encapsulated data stream from the network interface processor and renders data extracted from the IP encapsulated data stream for display and audio presentation.
