APPARATUS FOR SENSING TO MOUNT EXTERNAL DIGITAL MULTIMEDIA BROADCASTING ANTENNA AND METHOD FOR SETTING MODE ACCORDING TO MOUNT EXTERNAL DIGITAL MULTIMEDIA BROADCASTING ANTENNA

摘要

An apparatus for sensing an external DMB antenna and a method for setting a mode in accordance with installation of the external DMB antenna are provided to make a DMB terminal automatically sense whether an external antenna is installed, perform a DMB mode if sensing the installation of the external, and output a DMB program on a horizontally displayed screen. An apparatus for sensing an external DMB antenna comprises an external antenna(70), an external antenna installation sensing circuit(60), a DMB receiver(50) and a DMB processor(10). The external antenna installation sensing circuit(60) senses an installation of the external antenna(70) and outputs sensed signals if the external antenna(70) is installed, and outputs DMB signals received via the external antenna(70). The DMB receiver(50) modulates and outputs the DMB signals outputted by external antenna installation sensing circuit(60). The DMB processor(10) sets a DMB mode, processes the DMB signals and outputs the DMB if the sensed signals are inputted.
