Improvement of Data Broadcasting Interactive Service by The Internet
Details
BS digital receiver has a low speed analog modem for interactive service such as interactive TV program, tele-commerce, and etc. A means of communication by analog modem is popular. But customer has to wait because modem takes long time to connect. Moreover, if customer use is heavy, a telephone switch will congest. These circumstances make interactive service inconvenient. On the other hand, the internet has come into wide use recently. We investigated a way to solve these problems and developed a Protocol Transformation Equipment(PTE) for the purpose of connecting receiver to the internet. We demonstrate the PTE and propose new interactive service.
