VSB reception system with enhanced signal detection for processing supplemental data
First Claim
1. A method of processing digital broadcast data, the method comprising:
- detecting sync information in a digital television (DTV) signal containing first service data multiplexed with second service data;
demodulating the DIV signal;
decoding the demodulated DIV signal for first error correction by performing a first error correction function in order to correct errors in the first and second service data that occurred during reception of the DIV signal;
extracting the first service data from the decoded DIV signal; and
decoding the extracted first service data for second error correction by performing a second error correction function in order to additionally correct errors in the first service data that occurred during the reception of the DIV signal, wherein the first and second error correction functions are different from each other.

Abstract
A VSB reception system includes a sequence generator for decoding a symbol corresponding to the supplemental data and generating a predefined sequence included in the supplemental data at VSB transmission system. The reception system also includes a modified legacy VSB receiver for processing the data received from the VSB transmission system in a reverse order of the VSB transmission system by using the sequence, and a demultiplexer for demultiplexing the data from the modified legacy VSB receiver into the MPEG data and the supplemental data. The VSB reception system also includes a supplemental data processor for processing the supplemental data segment from the demultiplexer in a reverse order of the transmission system, to obtain the supplemental data, thereby carrying out the slicer prediction, decoding, and symbol decision more accurately by using the predefined sequence, to improve a performance.
