Abstract
During digital television (TV) transition, analog signal disturbs digital terrestrial television (DTT) transmission in an area where a simulcast service is available. In the TDS-OFDM- based DTTB system, the receiver is extremely sensitive to the co-channel interference (CCI) introduced by analog TV service. The CCI not only generates strong narrow-band interference in the frequency domain, but also greatly degrades the estimation of time-domain demodulating parameters in TDS-OFDM receiver. In this paper, a method of the time-domain autocorrelation of the received DTT signal is developed to detect the CCI, and it utilizes the line synchronization mechanism of analog TV signals. Also an IIR filter, setting one notch at each carrier of analog TV signal, is designed to reject the CCI in the time domain. From the filtered signal, synchronization errors and channel responses can be estimated by means of conventional algorithms for TDS-OFDM receiver. A DTMB receiver is designed to verify the proposed solutions and its robustness against the CCI is enforced about 20 dB in terms of signal interference ratio (SIR).
