1. Overview
| STD Number | ARIB STD-B10 |
|---|---|
| Standard Name | Service Information for Digital Broadcasting System |
| General Description | This standard specifies the basic configuration of service information used in digital broadcasting, detailed data structures of this service information, and operational guidelines. Service information consists of signals that complement the transmission control signals (Program Specific Information: PSI) in MPEG-2 systems. It is provided to convey multiplexed program data to a receiver and to simplify program selection. The service information specified here allows for eventual applicability to all broadcast media under the preconditions of international compatibility in data structures, flexibility in accommodating various program configurations from different broadcasters, and extendibility with respect to future broadcast services. |
