As the current TV set architecture tightly coupled with its hardware components, it is only able to decode NTSC based services, and it is impossible to adapt to new coming broadcasting services using new coded representations in future, such as MPEG2,3D-TV, etc. Therefore, we propose a concept, "next-generation TV system", where a TV set is essentially a kind of computer, each processing within it is performed by software and the decoder program is downloaded through transmission channels. In this paper, an efficient transmission scheme enabling such a system is described.
