Abstract

A scheme is provided for communicating high rate isochronous data in an MPEG-2 type transport stream in a robust manner. The syntax for the data bitstream also provides for the communication of a data clock increment value to a decoder. The increment value enables a simplified and cost effective approach to the direct digital synthesis of a clock frequency necessary to recover data from the packetized data stream at the decoder. The time resolution for presenting isochronous data presentation units at the decoder is increased by providing a presentation time stamp (PTS) extension to supplement a standard MPEG-2 PTS.
