Abstract

The Association of Radio Industries and Businesses in Japan decided the specifications for a digital terrestrial broadcasting system called ISDB-T in 1998. The ISDB-T transmission system is recommended in ITU-R Recommendation BT.1306. Planning criteria of the ISDB-T system are recommended in ITU-R Recommendation BT.1368. This paper describes the transmission scheme of the ISDB-T system. First, it explains features of the ISDB-T system. Second, it describes transmission systems such as modulation, error correction, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing framing, transmission and multiplexing configuration control, guard interval, etc. Finally, it concludes discussion of the ISDB-T transmission system and describes transmission parameters used in Japan.
