Method Detail

getStatus

public int getStatus()

Returns:

a bitfield representing several degrees of signal presence. Under normal conditions, it should read 0x1F.

getSignalStrength

public int getSignalStrength()

Returns:

a unit-less indication of the signal strength.

getSignalNoiseRatio

public int getSignalNoiseRatio()

Returns:

the signal-to-noise ratio, without any particular scale.

getBitErrorRate

public int getBitErrorRate()

Returns:

the error rate (number of corrected errors over unspecified time span) at the input of the reed-solomon decoder. Valid iff getUncorrectedBlocks() == 0.

getUncorrectedBlocks

public int getUncorrectedBlocks()

Returns:

the number of uncorrected TS packets.
