Method for receiving a broadcast signal and broadcast receiver device
The present disclosure relates to a method and system for receiving a broadcast signal. The system includes a broadcast receiver device having two receiving units, two decoding units, a combining unit and a further processing unit. A broadcast signal is received by both receiving units, so that two reception signals are provided. From each reception signal, a raw data stream is extracted and decoded by the decoding units. It is checked if the data stream provided by each decoding unit is complete. If a first data stream is complete, it is processed by the further processing unit. If the first data stream is incomplete and the second data stream is complete, the second data stream is further processed. If both data streams are incomplete, they will be combined to a combined data stream by the combining unit, the combined data stream being further processed, if it is complete.
Content linking multicast streaming for broadcast radio
Embodiments presented herein are directed to content linking multicast streaming The embodiments connect a listener to over-the-air (OTA) broadcast radio content using an Internet Protocol (IP) multicast stream of the broadcast radio content when, for example, (i) a traditional broadcast radio receiver is not available, or (ii) an OTA broadcast radio signal that carries the content is not available. For example, when recovery of the OTA broadcast radio signal by a car radio is not possible because of poor reception or because the car radio is not configured with a suitable broadcast radio tuner, the embodiments generate a link to a multicast stream of the OTA broadcast radio content (also referred to as a multicast broadcast radio stream or simply a multicast stream), and provide the link to the car radio. The car radio can then access the multicast stream of the OTA broadcast radio content using the link.
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING OF THE OBJECT-BASED AUDIO CONTENTS
The present invention relates to a system for transmitting and receiving audio, particularly, to a method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving of object-based audio contents, which packetizes audio objects having the same characteristic.
To achieve the above, the present invention includes filtering a plurality of ESs according to common information, adding a packet header to the respective filtered ESs and generate ES packets, aggregating all the generated ES packets and then adding a multi-object packet header to the aggregated ES packets to generate an object packet, and multiplexing the generated object packet, packetizing the multiplexed object packet according to a transmitting media and transmitting the packetized object packet.
EXPOSING DEMAND SIDE PLATFORMS MECHANISM FOR BROADCAST RADIO
An indication to make a terrestrial broadcast ad spot associated with a terrestrial broadcast available for bid via a digital demand side platform is received. A bid request is sent to the digital demand side platform based at least in part on the indication. An indication of a winning bid for the terrestrial broadcast ad spot is received. A creative ad content associated with the winning bid is caused to be included in the terrestrial broadcast at a time associated with the terrestrial broadcast ad spot.

ELECTRONIC VISUALLY-ASSISTED DRIVER COMMUNICATION SYSTEM WITH EMERGENCY MESSAGING INTEGRATION
The invention provides an innovative electronic driver courtesy system designed to improve road communication. The system includes a driver courtesy housing with an emissive display, power source, control module, and communication module, all attached to a vehicle for external visibility. It also involves an electronic device for user operation, featuring a screen with a graphical interface, microphone, processor, memory, and communication module for data transmission with the driver courtesy housing. Key features include voice commands or user interface engagement for sending textual messages, displayed on the vehicle's emissive display. The system also interfaces with various emergency communication and messaging systems. This system enables drivers to convey specific messages to other road users, enhancing communication clarity and road safety. The invention overcomes limitations of traditional driver communication methods and modern distractions. It integrates smartphone technology with vehicle display systems to offer a safer communication method on roads.
