Real-Time Signal Strength Display Of Terrestrial Digital Television Signals

US Patent:
6985190, Jan 10, 2006
Filed:
Aug 6, 2000
Appl. No.:
10/009298
Inventors:
Scott Edward Klopfenstein - Fishers IN, US
Aaron Hal Dinwiddie - Cicero IN, US
Daniel Richard Schneidewend - Fishers IN, US
Assignee:
Thomson Licensing - Boulogne-Billancourt
International Classification:
H04N 5/50
US Classification:
348569, 348570, 348735, 348732
Abstract:
An HDTV receiver coupled to a terrestrial antenna displays real-time signal strength of terrestrial digital television signals.

The grid is displayed within an active video display of a selected television signal from the grid. Audio for the selected channel is also active.

System For Acquiring And Processing Broadcast Programs, Program Guide And Channel Identification Data

US Patent:
7024676, Apr 4, 2006
Filed:
Feb 16, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/506873
Inventors:
Scott E. Klopfenstein - Fishers IN, US
Assignee:
Thomson Licensing - Boulogne-Billancourt
International Classification:
H04N 5/445
G06F 3/00
G06F 13/00
US Classification:
725 49, 725 59
Abstract:
A system for acquiring program guide information conveyed on one of a plurality of broadcast channels involves identifying an individual broadcast channel in response to user entry of either of, (a) a first channel identification number (e. g. a virtual channel identification number) and (b) a different second channel identification number (e. g. a transmission channel identification number). The system is tuned to receive the identified individual broadcast channel and packetized program information is acquired comprising a program conveyed on the individual broadcast channel using an acquired program guide. The packetized program information is processed to be suitable for display. The system also supports navigating within a first list of broadcast channels and a second list of sub-channels associated with individual broadcast channels in response to user activation of first and second navigation controls respectively.

Real-Time Signal Strength Measurement And Display Of Digital Television Signals

US Patent:
7286190, Oct 23, 2007
Filed:
Sep 19, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/230248
Inventors:
Scott Edward Klopfenstein - Fishers IN, US
Aaron Hal Dinwiddie - Cicero IN, US
Daniel Richard Schneidewend - Fishers IN, US
Assignee:
Thomson Licensing - Boulogne-Billancourt
International Classification:
H04N 5/50
US Classification:
348569, 348570, 348732, 348735
Abstract:
An HDTV receiver coupled to a terrestrial antenna displays real-time signal strength of terrestrial digital television signals. A graphical user interface preferably displays various data relating to all terrestrial television signals in a scrollable grid format. The grid is displayed within an active video display of a selected television signal from the grid. Audio for the selected channel is also active. A list of all channels tuned or selected is maintained to aid in searching. Channel lists are updated during certain channel searches.

Method And Apparatus For Performing A Channel Search In A Television

US Patent:
8453181, May 28, 2013
Filed:
Jun 23, 2000
Appl. No.:
10/031091
Inventors:
Gene Harlow Johnson - Carmel IN, US
Matthew Thomas Mayer - Indianapolis IN, US
Scott Edward Klopfenstein - Fishers IN, US
Aaron Hal Dinwiddie - Cicero IN, US
Assignee:
Thomson Licensing - Boulogne-Billancourt
International Classification:
H04N 5/445
US Classification:
725 59, 725 80, 725131, 725139, 725151, 348731
Abstract:
A television, such as an HDTV receiver, includes a plurality of signal inputs each of which is adapted to receive television signals comprising a plurality of channels and communicate the received television signals to a processor/tuner for selection of the various channels by a user for viewing on a display of the television. A channel search routine for the detection of channels in the television signal is accomplished on the currently designated signal input rather than on all signal inputs of the television. The channels detected during the search of the currently designated signal input are included in a channel list that is stored in memory of the television. A GUI is preferably used to initiate the channel search and is capable of displaying the detected channels relating to the currently selected signal input. Channel lists for each signal input are updated as the channels are detected. A complete channel list may be maintained for all signal inputs as well as individual channel lists for each signal input.

Method And Apparatus For Adaptively Storing Program Guide Data

US Patent:
2003005, Mar 13, 2003
Filed:
Mar 6, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/091816
Inventors:
Scott Klopfenstein - Fishers IN, US
International Classification:
G06F003/00
H04N005/445
G06F013/00
US Classification:
725/046000, 725/039000
Abstract:
Method and apparatus suitable for use within a television receiver for storing program guide information, wherein user interaction with a graphical object is used to determine the level of program information to be stored and the schedule length for the stored program guide information. User may select to store only basic program information, all extended program information, or a combination of basic program information with a desired degree of extended program information.

Method And Apparatus For Adaptively Storing Program Guide Data

US Patent:
2003005, Mar 13, 2003
Filed:
Mar 6, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/092039
Inventors:
Scott Klopfenstein - Fishers IN, US

System For Acquiring And Processing Broadcast Programs And Program Guide Data

US Patent:
6978471, Dec 20, 2005
Filed:
Feb 16, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/505588
Inventors:
Scott Edward Klopfenstein - Fishers IN, US
Assignee:
Thomson Licensing S.A. - Boulogne-Billancourt
International Classification:
G06F003/00
G06F013/00
H04N005/445
US Classification:
725 50, 725 54
Abstract:
Decoder system initialization involves scanning to associate a particular program guide with individual channels. A similar procedure is also performed upon introduction of a new channel. A system for acquiring program guide information conveyed on one of a plurality of broadcast channels involves scanning through received broadcast channels to identify program guides available on individual channels. A program guide of a selected program guide type (e. g. analog-VBI type, MPEG PSI type or ATSC PSIP type) is associated with a broadcast channel by updating a video decoder database. The program guide of the selected program guide type is acquired and used in capturing packetized program information comprising a program conveyed on an individual broadcast channel. In another feature, data received on an individual broadcast channel is examined to identify program guides of particular type in a predetermined order.
