+ <para>This section describes shortly what are the possible parameters in the Linux
+ DVB-API called "S2API" and now DVB API 5 in order to tune an ISDB-T/ISDB-Tsb
+ demodulator:</para>
+
+ <para>This ISDB-T/ISDB-Tsb API extension should reflect all information
+ needed to tune any ISDB-T/ISDB-Tsb hardware. Of course it is possible
+ that some very sophisticated devices won't need certain parameters to
+ tune.</para>
+
+ <para>The information given here should help application writers to know how
+ to handle ISDB-T and ISDB-Tsb hardware using the Linux DVB-API.</para>
+
+ <para>The details given here about ISDB-T and ISDB-Tsb are just enough to
+ basically show the dependencies between the needed parameter values,
+ but surely some information is left out. For more detailed information
+ see the following documents:</para>
+
+ <para>ARIB STD-B31 - "Transmission System for Digital Terrestrial
+ Television Broadcasting" and</para>
+ <para>ARIB TR-B14 - "Operational Guidelines for Digital Terrestrial
+ Television Broadcasting".</para>
+
+ <para>In order to read this document one has to have some knowledge the
+ channel structure in ISDB-T and ISDB-Tsb. I.e. it has to be known to
+ the reader that an ISDB-T channel consists of 13 segments, that it can
+ have up to 3 layer sharing those segments, and things like that.</para>

+ the channel which is 6MHz.</para>
+
+ <para>As in ISDB-Tsb the channel consists of only one or three segments the
+ frequency step is 429kHz, 3*429 respectively. As for ISDB-T the

+
+ <para>An ISDB-Tsb channel (1 or 3 segments) can be broadcasted alone or in a
+ set of connected ISDB-Tsb channels. In this set of channels every
+ channel can be received independently. The number of connected
+ ISDB-Tsb segment can vary, e.g. depending on the frequency spectrum
+ bandwidth available.</para>
+
+ <para>Example: Assume 8 ISDB-Tsb connected segments are broadcasted. The
+ broadcaster has several possibilities to put those channels in the
+ air: Assuming a normal 13-segment ISDB-T spectrum he can align the 8
+ segments from position 1-8 to 5-13 or anything in between.</para>
+
+ <para>The underlying layer of segments are subchannels: each segment is
+ consisting of several subchannels with a predefined IDs. A sub-channel
+ is used to help the demodulator to synchronize on the channel.</para>
+
+ <para>An ISDB-T channel is always centered over all sub-channels. As for

+ <title>Hierarchical layers</title>
+
+ <para>ISDB-T channels can be coded hierarchically. As opposed to DVB-T in
+ ISDB-T hierarchical layers can be decoded simultaneously. For that
+ reason a ISDB-T demodulator has 3 viterbi and 3 reed-solomon-decoders.</para>
+
+ <para>ISDB-T has 3 hierarchical layers which each can use a part of the

+
+ <section id="isdbt-layer-ena">
+ <title><constant>DTV_ISDBT_LAYER_ENABLED</constant></title>
+
+ <para>Hierarchical reception in ISDB-T is achieved by enabling or disabling
+ layers in the decoding process. Setting all bits of
+ <constant>DTV_ISDBT_LAYER_ENABLED</constant> to '1' forces all layers (if applicable) to be
+ demodulated. This is the default.</para>
+
+ <para>If the channel is in the partial reception mode
+ (<constant>DTV_ISDBT_PARTIAL_RECEPTION</constant> = 1) the central segment can be decoded
+ independently of the other 12 segments. In that mode layer A has to
