Overview

Multiplexing is used for the encapsulation and sequence arrangement of audio, video, data and control
information such that they are adaptive to mobile multimedia broadcast channel for transmission, see Fig.
1.
The audio stream, video stream and data stream belonged to the same service will be placed in the same
multiplex sub-frame. Auxiliary information such as ESG, subscriber management will be placed in
different multiplex sub-frames. The system control information will be placed in a special multiplex
frame.

Fig. A1 32-bit CRC Decoder Model

32-bit decoder consists of 14 adders and 32 delay units Z (i), operating by bit. CRC decoders input is
added to the output of delay unit Z (31), the outcome is sent to delay unit Z (0) and the input terminals of
other adders. When the output terminal of each adder is connected to the input terminal of Unit Z (i + 1),
the input of each adder is the output of Unit Z (i), i = 0, 1 , 3 , 4 , 6 , 7 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 15 , 21 , 22 , 25.
See Formula (A1) for CRC calculation polynomial

x 32 + x 26 + x 23 + x 22 + x16 + x12 + x11 + x10 + x 8 + x 7 + x 5 + x 4 + x 2 + x + 1 A1

When byte data is received by CRC decoder input terminal, the received data shift one bit each time into
decoder, adopting rule of most significant bit first. For example, when the received data is 0x01, seven
0s enter into decoder first followed by 1 after. Prior to data processing by CRC decoder, initialization
of output of each delay unit Z (i) is 1, upon completion of initialization, each byte contained in this part
is sent to the input terminal of CRC decoder, which includes four CRC_32 bytes. When the last bit
ofCRC_32 byte is shifted into the decoder, i.e. after Z (31) output is added by Z (0), read out all delay
units output, if there is no error occurred, the output data of each Z (i) shall be 0.
CRC_32 field in CRC encoder uses same data coding.
