Abstract:This paper presents a framework for Set-top Boxes (STB) with reconfigurable video decoder capability, using the Digital TV (DTV) broadcast signal for the update process. The framework is based on a commercial platform and uses a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) module for the reconfiguration process, where it is expected that a new H.264 video decoder be available. The reconfiguration of the FPGA is performed through a bit stream containing the hardware description (H.264), which is transmitted along with … Show more
