Transmission aspects of the advanced digital high definition television (AD-HDTV) system, for terrestrial simulcast delivery of HDTV are described. In AD-HDTV, two quadrature-amplitude-modulated (QAM) carriers, with different power spectral densities, are employed in a frequency division multiplex (FDM) mode within the standard 6-MHz channel. The resulting spectral shaping allows a larger power to be transmitted, compared to that for a single QAM carrier, for the same level of perceptual interference into cochannel NTSC. The coded video data are split into high-priority (HP) data and standard-priority (SP) data, and the vital information is sent on the appropriate QAM carrier, resulting in a robust audio and video transmission system. The availability is higher in scenarios where the carrier-to-noise ratio (CNR) is above the threshold for HP reception but below the threshold for SP reception; this is important in fringe areas. The NTSC planning factors, suitably modified for HDTV delivery, are used to estimate the coverage area for AD-HDTV. The calculated AD-HDTV coverage area of 54.5 miles is comparable to that for NTSC transmission. >read more

Equalization apparatus with effective coefficient updating operation
TL;DR: In this article, the CMA term and the Cauchy distribution function are combined with a proper choice for the weight factors to prevent the equalizer coefficients from converging to a local minimum of the coarse MSE function and makes them converge to the global minimum thereof all the time.
