Abstract

See full text

A transmission arrangement includes a main transmitter (100) for transmitting a first broadcast transmission signal in a reception area (104), and a receiver apparatus (106) adapted to receive the first broadcast transmission signal (102) and to transmit a second broadcast transmission signal (110) in response to the reception of the first broadcast transmission signal. The first broadcast transmission signal (102) includes subsequent first information packets (IPMT1, IPMT2, IPMT3, . . . ) with subsequent first information packets (IPMTi) having at least two subsequent information blocks (IBMTi.1, IBMTi.2) having substantially the same information. The second broadcast transmission signal includes subsequent second information packets (IPRS1, IPRS2, IPRS3, . . . ) with subsequent second information packets (IPRSi) having at least one information block (IBRSi). The second information packets (IPRSi) of the second broadcast transmission signal (110) are of substantially the same length in time as the first information packets (IPMTi) of the first broadcast transmission signal and the information blocks (IBRSi) of the second information packets are of substantially the same length in time as the information blocks (IBMT i,j) of the first information packets. The receiver apparatus (106) is further adapted to transmit the second broadcast transmission signal such in time, that the formation blocks (IBMTi.2, IBMT i+1.2, . . . ) in the first information packets in the first broadcast transmission signal are correlated in time with the at least first information blocks (IBRS i, IBRS i+1, . . . ) in the second information packets in the second broadcast transmission signal. This results in an increase of the reception area of the main transmitter by the reception area of the receiver apparatus.
