More particularly, the present invention related to a method of receiving the 3D broadcast signal and apparatus thereof in a mobile broadcasting reception environment.
As the dissemination of a 3 dimensional television (3DTV) is raging, a transmission of a 3D video content performed by a digital broadcasting as well as the dissemination of the 3D video content performed by a storing media is vitalized.
In general, a 3 dimensional video provides a 3D effect using a principle of stereo vision of two eyes. Since a human feels perspective via parallax of two eyes, in other word, binocular parallax due to a space between two eyes apart from each other about 65 mm, the 3D video may provide the 3D effect and the perspective in a manner of providing a video, which makes a left eye and a right eye see a related plane video, respectively.
The 3D video display method includes a stereoscopic technique, a volumetric technique, a holographic technique, and the like. In case of the stereoscopic technique, it provides a left view image supposed to be watched by a left eye and a right view image supposed to be watched by a right eye. The stereoscopic technique enables to recognize a 3D video effect in a manner of making the left eye and the right eye watch the left view image and the right view image respectively using a polarized glasses or a display device itself.

Preferably, the method of receiving a 3D broadcast video according to one embodiment of the present invention may further include the step of further parsing a 3D image direction information indicating whether at least one of the left video image and the right video image is transmitted in a manner of upside down in the video frame.
Preferably, the method of receiving a 3D broadcast video according to one embodiment of the present invention may further include the steps of detecting a location of a known data sequence included in the received broadcast signal and performing a channel equalization on a channel on which the broadcast signal is transmitted by detecting the known data sequence included in the broadcast signal with the location of the detected known data sequence.

Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Yet, the present invention may be non-limited or non-restricted by the embodiments.
Although terminologies used in the present specification are selected from general terminologies used currently and widely in consideration of functions, they may be changed in accordance with intentions of technicians engaged in the corresponding fields, customs, advents of new technologies and the like. Occasionally, some terminologies may be arbitrarily selected by the applicant(s). In this case, the meanings of the arbitrarily selected terminologies shall be described in the corresponding part of the detailed description of the specification. Therefore, terminologies used in the present specification need to be construed based on the substantial meanings of the corresponding terminologies and the overall matters disclosed in the present specification rather than construed as simple names of the terminologies.
The method of expression for a 3 dimensional video may include a stereoscopic technique considering two viewpoints and a multiple view image technique (or a multi-view technique) considering more than 3 viewpoints. Comparably, a conventional single view image technique may be called a monoscopic video technique.
The stereoscopic technique uses a pair of image, i.e., a left view image and a right view image obtained by photographing a same subject with a left camera and a right camera, which are away a certain distance from each other. The multi-view technique uses more than 3 images obtained by photographing with 3 or more cameras having a certain distance and angle. In the following description, although the present invention explains the stereoscopic technique as one embodiment, the idea of the present invention may also be applied to the multi-view technique.
According to the present invention, the stereoscopic technique includes a side-by-side, a top-bottom, a checker board technique, and the like. The side-by-side technique is a technique configuring one stereoscopic video by performing a half down sampling horizontally on each of a left video and a right video, respectively and situating one sampled video in a left region and the other sampled video in a right region. The top-bottom technique is a technique configuring one stereoscopic video by performing a half down sampling vertically on each of a left video and a right video, respectively and situating one sampled video in a top region and the other sampled video in a bottom region. The checker board technique is a technique configuring one video by performing a half down sampling in a manner that a left video and a right video respectively intersect horizontally and vertically. Yet, the stereoscopic technique according to the present invention may be non-limited or non-restricted by the aforementioned example.
When a 3D video is intended to be transmitted, one of the considerations is compatibility with a 2 dimensional video. Because a receiver not supportive of a 3D video display should display a 3D video, which is included in a received broadcasting signal, as a 2D video and a 3DTV should be able to display a 2D video as well, if necessary.
A single video stream format includes (a) a side-by-side format, (b) a top-bottom format, (c) an interlaced format, (d) a frame sequential format, (e) a checker board format, (f) an anaglyph format, and the like.
(a) The side-by-side format is a format configuring one stereoscopic video by performing a half down sampling horizontally on each of a left video and a right video, respectively and situating one sampled video in a left region and the other sampled video in a right region. (b) The top-bottom technique is a format configuring one stereoscopic video by performing a half down sampling vertically on each of a left video and a right video, respectively and situating one sampled video in a top region and the other sampled video in a bottom region. (c) The interlaced technique is a format configuring one video by performing a half down sampling in order for a left video and a right video to intersect horizontally on every line or a format configuring one video by performing a half down sampling in order for a left video and a right video to intersect vertically on every line. (d) The frame sequential technique is a format configuring one video stream by intersecting a left video and a right video in a time manner. (e) The checker board format is a format configuring one video by performing a half down sampling in order for a left video and a right video to intersect horizontally and vertically, respectively. (f) The anaglyph format is a format configuring one video to create a 3D effect using a complementary contrast.
In order for a receiving system to process a video data in a manner of efficiently demultiplexing the video data transmitted by the aforementioned various techniques, it is necessary to transmit information on the aforementioned multiplexing format.

The inverting and minoring an image in
In order for the receiving system to efficiently receive and process a 3D video stream or a 3D video data, it is necessary to transmit information on the aforementioned multiplexing format. Moreover, in case that an image is inverted or mirrored as mentioned in the above, it is necessary to transmit the information related to the inverting or mirroring. For clarity, the information can be defined as a table or a descriptor.
The MH_component_data according to one embodiment of the present invention may be able to include a 3D_structure field, an LR_first field, a 3D_orientation field, a profile_idc field, a constraint_set0_flag field, a constraint_set1_flag field, a constraint_set2_flag field, an AVC_compatible_flags field, a level_idc field, an AVC_still_present field and/or an AVC_24_hour_picture_flag field.
The 3D_structure field indicates a structure of a stereoscopic image. For instance, the 3D_structure field may be able to include the information on whether the stereoscopic image is configured by a half resolution or a full resolution. Or, in case of the half resolution, a multiplexing technique of a left image and a right image can be indicated by this field. In particular, the 3D_structure field may be able to include the information indicating which technique is used among the multiplexing techniques depicted in
The LR_first field, for instance, in case of a side-by-side format, indicates whether a left half image is a left image or a right image. As a different example, in case of a top-bottom format, this field indicates whether a top half image is a left image or a right image. For instance, in case of the side-by-side format, if the 3D_structure field is set to ‘0’, this field indicates that the left half image is the left image. If the 3D_structure field is set to ‘1’, this field indicates that the left half image is the right image.

The level_idc field indicates a level information followed by a coded video sequence.
The AVC_still_present field corresponds to an information indicating a use of an AVC picture.
According to one embodiment of the present invention, whether a 3D service is included in an MH service can be signaled via a MH_service_category field of a service map table. In this case, a receiver not capable of receiving and processing the 3D service is configured not to recognize this value or is configured to ignore the value, thereby securing a backward compatibility with a legacy receiver even in case that the 3D service is provided.
Or, the 3D service can be signaled via an MH component descriptor. For instance, whether a specific component includes the 3D service can be indicated via a component_type included in the MH component descriptor. A receiver may be able to recognize whether the specific component includes the 3D service via a configuration value of the component_type.
Meanwhile, as mentioned in the foregoing description, a technique for a 3D stereoscopic video can be performed via the MH_component_data.
According to a different embodiment of the present invention, a mobile broadcasting receiver distinguishes whether a mobile broadcast service received using a MH_service_category of the SMT is a 3D broadcast service. This process is optional. As a further different embodiment, the 3D broadcast service can be identified using a service_category value indicating a conventional mobile digital broadcasting.
The mobile broadcasting receiver identifies whether a 3D video component is included in a corresponding service using a component_type value of the MH component descriptor. A legacy broadcasting receiver (i.e., a legacy mobile receiver) may be able to filter the 3D broadcast service using the component_type field.
The mobile broadcasting receiver identifies 3D format information of a 3D video component and the like in advance using a detail field of the MH_component_data. In some cases, if a format not supported by the receiver is included, a corresponding service can be filtered out.
The mobile broadcasting receiver receives a decoded image signal and then formats a video signal according to a pixel arrangement of a 3D display again, in other word, performs a process of mapping a pixel again. In this case, the 3D format information of a video can use the information included in the aforementioned MH_component_data.
According to one embodiment of the present invention, if the 3D-orientation field is set to ‘00’, it indicates that both a left image and a right image are not inverted.
If the 3D-orientation field is set to ‘01’, it indicates that a left image is not inverted and a right image is inverted.
If the 3D-orientation field is set to ‘10’, it indicates that a right image is not inverted and a left image is inverted.
If the 3D-orientation field is set to ‘11’, it indicates that both a left image and a right image are inverted.
