Apparatus and method for encoding and decoding signals
First Claim
1. A method comprising the steps of:
- receiving a data set in an encoder having a processor, the data set arranged in packets;
extracting a subset of packets from the data set;
encoding the subset of packets using a byte code encoding process;
modifying a packet identifier for the subset of packets after encoding using said byte code encoding process;
combining the encoded subset of the data set with the remaining portion of the data set; and
encoding the combined data set using a second encoding process different than said byte code encoding process.

Abstract
New capabilities will allow conventional broadcast transmission to be available to mobile devices. A method is described including receiving a data set, extracting a subset, encoding the subset using a first encoding process, combining the encoded subset with the remaining portion, and encoding the combined data set including the appended subset using a second encoding process. an apparatus is described including means for extracting a subset, means for first encoding, means for combining, and means for second encoding. An apparatus for decoding includes a data identifier receiving a data set and identifying a subset of data, a first decoder decoding the subset using a first decoding process, and a second decoder combining the subset of data with a remaining portion of the data set and decoding the combined data using a second decoding process. A method for decoding is also described.

-
encoding a first data set using a byte code encoding process in an encoder having a processor, the first data set arranged in packets; modifying a packet identifier for the first data set after encoding using said byte code encoding process; combining the encoded first data set with a second data set to produce a combined data set; and encoding the combined data set using a second encoding process different than said byte code encoding process. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
