4Dss transport stream
A DSS transport stream consists of transport stream packets with a length of 130 B.NOTE Refer to Annex 1 of ITU-R BO.1294:1997 for more information.
A stream may contain several programs. In Figure 1, an example is given of a transportstream,which consists of several programs. Often,only one or a few programs need to betransmitted. lf a program selection is carried out, then only those transport stream packetsfrom that particular transport stream are transmitted. In this situation, the occupied bandwidthon the lEEE 1394 interface can be reduced.Reduction of the bit rate is carried in a smoothingbuffer.As a result of the smoothing operation, the transport stream packets will be shifted intime.
The transport stream packets at the output of the smoothing buffer are transmitted over theIEEE 1394 interface. During transmission,this interface will introduce some jitter onthe arrival time of the transport stream packets in the receiver.
In the Dss transport stream,there are strong requirements on the timing of the transportstream packets. The jitter introduced by the both the smoothing buffer and the transmitter ofthe interface has to be compensated. This is done by adding a time stamp to the transportstream packets:
– at the moment it arrives at the input of the smoothing buffer; or- at the input of the digital interface, if smoothing is not applied.
The receiver of the interface contains a receiver buffer,which compensates for the introducedjitter.
