This formalization provides a framework for describing the caption communications hierarchy. Grouping the structures, con

22、cepts and features of this environment into the following hierarchical layers, aids in the understanding of the organizational aspects of the DTVCC system. There are 5 layers in the DTVCC data framework (see Figure 1): DTVCC Transport Layer, DTVCC Packet Layer, DTVCC Service Layer, DTVCC Coding Laye

23、r, and DTVCC Interpretation Layer. Similar to the OSI Reference Model, each of these layers provides particular services in the receiver, as shown in Table 1.

26、er is where DTVCC data leave the DTV Video subsystem and are introduced to the DTV Closed-Caption decoder. Within the DTVCC decoder, DTVCC data are further processed up through the remaining layers of the DTVCC Protocol Model. Both the CEA-608 datastream and DTVCC data are carried in this layer. NOT

27、EThe DTVCC Transport layer should not be confused with the main system transport layer. For example, in MPEG-2 ATSC systems, the MPEG-2 transport layer is defined in CEA-708-E 7 ISO/IEC 13818-1 6, and this transport layer carries video, audio, data and control streams. DTVCC bits are encoded within

28、the video signal conforming with ISO/IEC 13818-2 7. These bits enter the DTVCC decoder from the video streams user data structure. This standard specifies a method of placing a CEA-608 datastream, embedded in the signal specified by this standard, into the correct bit positions and fields in an NTSC

29、 signal, but this standard does not specify any application or presentation level processes for CEA-608 datastreams. Further processing of CEA-608 datastreams is specified in CEA-608 1. The DTVCC Packet Layer marks where DTVCC data enter the DTVCC decoder. This is a protocol data reassembly layer th

30、at buffers incremental bitstream data into a byte-aligned, multi-byte packet. This layer provides resynchronization for decoding the DTVCC stream, and is not dependent on the DTVCC Transport layer. Processing of the Caption Channel packet data begins in the DTVCC Service Layer. Caption Channel packe

31、ts are broken up into the encapsulated sub-blocks of data to be routed to one or more separate caption service processing routines within the decoder. Using information in the DTVCC Service Directory (see Section 4.5), TV viewers may choose to view the processed data for one or more DTVCC services a

32、t a time. For example, a caption channel may contain an English language service and a Spanish language service. The DTVCC Coding Layer breaks out the individual caption commands and caption text sequences from the service data blocks. The DTVCC Interpretation Layer processes the caption elements pr

33、esented by the DTVCC Coding Layer. The DTVCC Interpretation Layer also provides for delaying the interpretation of the command stream and reset of a specific Caption Service.

See Section 4.3.6. one_bitThis bit shall be set to 1 to maintain backwards compatibility with previous versions of this structure. cc_validThis one-bit flag shall indicate the validity of the two closed-caption data bytes which follow it. If cc_valid is set to 1, t

If cc_valid is set to 0, the following two closed caption bytes shall have no meaning; however, the bit pair cc_type shall have meaning. For CEA-608 captions, cc_valid shall be interpret

39、ed at the time it is inserted into the NTSC video. See Section 4.3.2.2. cc_typeThis two-bit field shall signal the type of the following two bytes of closed caption data as indicated in Table 3.

Future versions of this standard may use other values for these reserved syntax elements; therefore decoders shall ignore these reser

43、ved syntax elements, but interpret portions of the syntax that are defined. 4.3.1 Structure and Interpretation of cc_data() As shown in Table 3, when cc_valid=1, the cc_type field identifies the accompanying byte pair cc_data_1 and cc_data_2 as one of four items: CEA-608 line 21 field 1 or field 2 c

44、aption data, the start of a DTVCC Caption Channel Packet, or the continuation of a DTVCC Caption Channel Packet. When cc_valid=0 and cc_type=10 or 11, the byte pair is padding. The state diagram in Figure 2 illustrates the context-dependent meaning of cc_data bytes carried in the cc_data() structure

45、. State 1 (Start of cc_data() is entered at the beginning of each instance of a new cc_data() structure. The formation of cc_data() conforms to the following rules: 1. When data of cc_type 00 or 01 occur at the beginning of the cc_data() structure, cc_data_1 and cc_data_2 shall contain CEA-608 data.

46、 The presence of CEA-608 data shall correspond with State 2 in Figure 2. 2. CEA-608 data bytes shall only occur in the first one, two or three byte-pair positions, depending on frame rate. Section 4.3.2.2describes how this data may be stored in the field buffer model. The CEA-608 data shall follow t

47、he format and protocol as specified in CEA-608. The CEA-608 data field order (field 1 vs. field 2) depends on the field display order. 3. Data bytes cc_data_1 and cc_data_2 may be DTVCC padding bytes. The interpretation of cc_data_1 and cc_data_2 as DTVCC padding shall be as given in Figure 2; e.g.

48、the conditions corresponding to State (5). 4. The condition cc_valid = 1 and cc_type = 11 shall indicate start of CCP (State (3). 5. The condition cc_valid = 1 and cc_type = 10 shall indicate continuation of a CCP (State (4). 6. The DTVCC emission shall structure cc_data() to conform only to valid F

49、igure 2 state transitions. The condition cc_valid = 1 and (cc_type = 00 or cc_type = 01) occurring at states 3, 4, or 5 shall be considered invalid. Decoders may respond to such conditions by displaying unexpected information and the decoder may be left in an indeterminate state. CEA-708-E 12 ( 2 )6 0 8 S e g m e n t( 1 ) S t a r t o f c
