An apparatus for multiplexing multimedia broadcast signals and related forward error control data in time sliced burst transmission frames

摘要

An apparatus comprising a controller configured to divide a section of an encoded multimedia signal into at least two segments depending on a time based decoding criteria; a generator configured to determine an error correction code for each of the at least two time segments; and a distributor configured to associate the error correction code for each of the at least two time segments with the section of the encoded multimedia signal and with a section of at least one further encoded multimedia signal.
