Method and system for the reception-side evaluation of the quality of a digital signal, for example, of a digital sound - and picture signal

摘要

The invention concerns a method and a system for assessing the quality of a broadcast digital signal. A reference signal (sref) is generated (1001) from an initial signal (so) and jointly broadcast (1002) with a digital signal (sn). At reception level, the broadcast digital signal and reference signal received (snr, sref) are synchronised (2001) and a value D of the distance between the reference signal and the digital signal (snr, sref) is computed (2002) for assigning (2003) a quality value Q. The invention is applicable to the broadcast of audio/and or video digital signals.
