17、cte.org 4 Compliance Notation As used in this standard, “shall” denotes a mandatory provision of the standard. “Should” denotes a provision that is recommended but not mandatory. “May” denotes a feature, whose presence does not preclude compliance, that may or may not be present at the option of the

18、 implementer. “Optional” denotes items that may or may not be present in a compliant implementation. 5 Emergency Alert Message (Normative) The cable_emergency_alert() message shall be delivered out-of-band (Extended Channel per ANSI/SCTE 28 5) to the receiving device in packets identified with the S

19、I_base_PID value of 0x1FFC (per SCTE 28 4 Section 8.9.1). For transport streams carrying one or more programs in the clear, the cable_emergency_alert() message shall be delivered to the receiving device in the MPEG-2 2 transport stream for that channel in packets identified with the base_PID value o

20、f 0x1FFB. The syntax of the cable_emergency_alert() message that shall be used is defined in Table 1. Acronyms uimsbf, bslbf, and rpchof are as defined in ISO/IEC 13818-1 2 Section 2.2.6. J-STD-42-B 4 The MPEG-2 table_ID for this message is 0xD8. Refer to ISO/IEC 13818-1 2 MPEG-2 systems for a descr

21、iption of the fields common to the MPEG-2 private section syntax. The cable_emergency_alert() message is limited to 4096 bytes maximum length, which means that the section_length field may have a maximum value of 4093 decimal. table_IDThis is an 8-bit field which shall be set to 0xD8, identifying th

22、is table as the cable_emergency_alert() message. section_syntax_indicatorThis 1-bit field shall be set to 1. It denotes that the table section follows the generic MPEG-2 section syntax beyond the section_length field zeroThis 1-bit field shall be set to 0. J-STD-42-B 5 Syntax Bits Description cable_

Receiving devices are expected to disregard reserved fields for wh

29、ich no definition exists that is known to that unit. Each bit in the fields marked reserved shall be set to one until such time as they are defined and supported. section_length12-bit field specifying the number of remaining bytes in this section immediately following the section_length field up to

30、the end of the section. The value of the section_length shall be no larger than 4093. table_id_extensionThis 16-bit field shall be set to zero (0x0000). sequence_numberThis 5-bit field is the sequence number of this cable_emergency_alert() message. The sequence_number shall be incremented by 1 (modu

31、lo 32), when any change occurs in the information carried in the cable_emergency_alert() message. Receiving devices process the sequence_number in order to detect and discard duplicate transmissions. Duplicates of any alert may be sent to overcome possible message loss due to channel noise. When the

32、 last-used sequence_number is known, generating equipment shall increment sequence_number by one (modulo 32) when any data in the alert message changes. In case the last-used sequence_number is unknown (which can occur if a new piece of equipment is brought on line), generating equipment shall send

33、an Emergency Alert with alert_priority zero to establish a new sequence_number in all receiving devices before sending any actual alerts. current_next_indicatorThis 1-bit indicator shall always be set to 1 indicating that the table sent is always currently applicable. section_numberThe value of this

34、 8-bit field shall always be 0x00 (this table shall be at most one section long). last_section_numberThe value of this 8-bit field shall always be 0x00. protocol_versionAn 8-bit unsigned integer field whose function is to allow, in the future, this table type to carry parameters that may be structur

35、ed differently than those defined in the current protocol. At present, the only valid value for protocol_version is zero. EAS_event_ID-A 16-bit value that shall identify the particular Emergency Alert event. Each time a new EAS message is distributed throughout the cable system, a new EAS_event_ID s

36、hall be assigned. A new EAS_event_ID shall be assigned if any parameter defining the event changes; that is, any field following the EAS_event_ID itself, excluding the alert_message_time_remaining field. NOTEAn Emergency Alert event with EAS_event_ID value A may be followed later by another event wi

37、th EAS_event_ID value B. Since B represents a change to the contents of the cable_emergency_alert() message, the sequence_number for B is incremented. The notification of event A could then be repeated, with the sequence_number incremented yet again. As long as no aspect of event A was changed, the

38、originally assigned EAS_event_ID value for that event could be used for the repeat notification. Receiving devices that had seen and processed the original event A, could then recognize this as a repetition and discard it. NOTEDesign consideration should be given to initial acquisition of a cable_em

39、ergency_alert() table section. EAS_originator_codeThe EAS originator code defined by 47 C.F.R. Part 11 3 as ORG codes, indicating the entity that originally initiated the activation of the EAS. Receiving devices process the cable_emergency_alert() message for any value in this field. Processing of t

40、he EAS_originator_code in receiving devices is optional, but may be used with EAS_event_code to trigger various alarms or attention-J-STD-42-B 7 getting behavior in the equipment. EAS_originator_code is coded as three ASCII characters. “Originator” codes defined in 47 C.F.R. 11.31(d) 3 are reprinted

42、es of the EAS_event_code field to follow. EAS_event_codeThe EAS event code defined by 47 C.F.R. Part 11 3 as “Event” (EEE) codes, indicating the nature of the EAS activation. Receiving devices process the cable_emergency_alert() message for any value in this field. Processing of the EAS_event_code i

43、n receiving devices is optional, but may be used to trigger various alarms or attention-getting behavior in the equipment beyond handling the mandatory actions required by the cable_emergency_alert() message. EAS_event_code shall be coded as n ASCII characters, where n is given by EAS_event_code_len
