Abstract
There is provided a transmission device including circuitry configured to generate a physical layer frame. A time information descriptor is included in a preamble of the physical layer frame. The time information descriptor includes a time information flag that indicates presence or absence of time information in the time information descriptor. The circuitry is configured to transmit the physical layer frame including the preamble and a payload. The time information indicates a time of a predetermined position in a stream of the physical layer frame.
Claims22
A reception device comprising:
- a processor configured to:
- receive a physical layer frame including a bootstrap, a preamble, and a payload, wherein
- the preamble includes a time information flag that indicates presence or absence of time information in the physical layer frame,
- in a case where the time information flag indicates the presence of the time information, the time information indicates a time at a head of the bootstrap, which is adjacent to the preamble, and
- the time information is defined in accordance with a precise time protocol.
A reception method of a reception device, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a processor of the reception device, a physical layer frame including a bootstrap, a preamble, and a payload, wherein
- the preamble includes a time information flag that indicates presence or absence of time information in the physical layer frame,
- in a case where the time information flag indicates the presence of the time information, the time information indicates a time at a head of the bootstrap, which is adjacent to the preamble, and
- the time information is defined in accordance with a precise time protocol.
A reception device comprising:
- a tuner configured to receive a physical layer frame including a bootstrap, a preamble, and a payload, wherein
- the preamble includes a time information flag that indicates presence or absence of time information in the physical layer frame,
- in a case where the time information flag indicates the presence of the time information, the time information indicates a time at a head of the bootstrap, which is adjacent to the preamble, and
- the time information is defined in accordance with a precise time protocol.
