Abstract

Mobile broadcasting services are considered effective methods for emergency alert delivery. Terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting (T-DMB) offers an emergency alert service called automatic emergency alert service (AEAS). However, the conventional AEAS is inefficient in the aspects of alert service channel, disabled T-DMB receiver, and location-based service. Therefore, this paper proposes a novel signaling method in order to overcome the drawbacks of the AEAS. The presented alert system exploits an additional alert channel, which is multiplexed with the conventional T-DMB channel. This paper also addresses the multiplexing approach, which effectively eliminates the interference between the additional alert channel and the TDMB channel. The simulation results confirm that the proposed signaling method effectively offers the emergency alert services in T-DMB1.
