libenatsc3j288alp

libentasc3j288alp implements a J288 packet processor accepting J288 packets carrying ATSC 3.0 ALP packets and producing ALP and/or baseband packets. When baseband packets are requested the provided baseband packet is synthesized by wrapping an ALP packet in a baseband packet.

Usage

    • Applications instantiate a J288 packet processor via ENATSC3J288ALPOpen.
    • Applications use ENATSC3J288ALPRegisterCallbacks to register callback functions to be called when  ALP or baseband  packets or PTP information is available.
    • As J288 packets are received the application calls ENATSC3J288ALPProcessJ288Packets to provide them to the processor. The processor calls the ENATSC3J288BasebandCallbackFunction and/or ENATSC3J288ALPCallbackFunction callbacks as ALP packets are extracted. The ENATSC3J288PTPCallbackFunction is called when PTP information is obtained.
    • When the application is done with the processor it is closed by ENATSC3J288ALPClose.

Types

typedef struct

    // See A/322 9.2.1. The time_info_flag indicates whether the physical
    // layer frame from which the L1B was extracted contains timing
    // information, and if so to what precision. Valid values are:
    // 0: Time information is not included in the current frame.
    // 1: Time information is included in the current frame and signaled
    // to ms precision. 
    // 2: Time information is included in the current frame and signaled
    // to us precision. 
    // 3: Time information is included in the current frame and signaled
    // to ns precision.

Callback Functions

typedef void(*ENATSC3J288ALPCallbackFunction)(
    uint32_t plpId,
    struct timespec *pPacketTimeUTC, 
    uint64_t packetNumber,
    int32_t fError, 
    const uint8_t *pPacket, 
    int32_t sPacket, 
    void *pUserData
);

ENATSC3J288BasebandCallbackFunction is called by the J288 packet processor to deliver an ALP packet to the application.

Parameters
    • plpId: The PLP on which the ALP packet was received.
    • pPacketTimeUTC: The timestamp of the J288 packet from which the ALP packet was received. If the ALP packet spans J288 packets then the timestamp is obtained from the first J288 packet containing a fragment of the ALP packet.
    • packetNumber: The packet number of the J288 packet from which the ALP packet was received. If the ALP packet spans J288 packets then the packet number is obtained from the first J288 packet containing a fragment of the ALP packet.
    • pPacket: The ALP packet. The data pointed to by pPacket is not valid once the callback function returns. Applications must copy any data if it is required for an extended period.
    • sPacket: The number of bytes referenced by pPacket.
    • pUserData: Application data provided when the callback was registered.
typedef void(*ENATSC3J288BasebandCallbackFunction)(
    uint32_t plpId,
    struct timespec *pPacketTimeUTC, 
    uint64_t packetNumber,
    int32_t fError, 
    const uint8_t *pPacket, 
    int32_t sPacket, 
    void *pUserData
);

ENATSC3J288BasebandCallbackFunction is called by the J288 packet processor to deliver an ALP packet wrapped in a baseband packet to the application.

Parameters
    • plpId: The PLP on which the ALP packet was received.
    • pPacketTimeUTC: The timestamp of the J288 packet from which the ALP packet was received. If the ALP packet spans J288 packets then the timestamp is obtained from the first J288 packet containing a fragment of the ALP packet.
    • packetNumber: The packet number of the J288 packet from which the ALP packet was received. If the ALP packet spans J288 packets then the packet number is obtained from the first J288 packet containing a fragment of the ALP packet.
    • pPacket: The baseband packet. The data pointed to by pPacket is not valid once the callback function returns. Applications must copy any data if it is required for an extended period.
    • sPacket: The number of bytes referenced by pPacket.
    • pUserData: Application data provided when the callback was registered.
typedef void(*ENATSC3J288PTPCallbackFunction)(
    struct timespec *pPacketTimeUTC, 
    uint64_t packetNumber,
    ENATSC3J288PTPInfo *pPTPInfo, 
    void *pUserData
);

ENATSC3J288PTPCallbackFunction is called by the J288 packet processor when PTP information is found in the J288 stream.

Parameters
    • pPacketTimeUTC: The timestamp of the J288 packet from which the PTP information was received.
    • packetNumber: The packet number of the J288 packet from which the PTP information was received.
    • pPTPInfo: The PTP information. The data pointed to by pPTPInfo is not valid once the callback function returns. Applications must copy any data if it is required for an extended period.
    • pUserData: Application data provided when the callback was registered.

Function Reference
