s Rev C Overview Only minor changes made, therefore revision “D” not generated – new Revision C dated March 6, DCRs generated from: –NRSC questions and comments from meetings since September –Ongoing internal document process Changes listed in following slides

s – Rev C Change Summary DCR Page 4 -Change expansion for UTC to "Coordinated Universal Time“ (item #3 in attachment) 2.Need to add the definition for "Reference Subcarrier" to the Glossary (item #12 in attachment) 3.Page 24 Section 6.4 last sentence to be corrected as - ""...not part of the transmitted HD...""(item #16 in attachment)-delete the entire sentence 4.Table 6-7 last row contains ""l"" instead of ""1""-this needs to be corrected. (item #19 in attachment) 5.TOC need to corrected to correctly number the document-this has been corrected in the internal version needs to be fixed in the SY_IDD_1011s (item #1 in attachment) 6.Page 3 -correct the abbreviation for kilobits per second to ""kbit/sec""-this change has been completed in both the documents (item #2 in attachment) 7.Page 6 Note in italics that refers to Subsection 0, should be corrected to sections 3.5.-this has been corrected in both the documents. (item #4 in attachment)

s – Rev C Change Summary DCR Make appropriate changes in future generations of IBOC transmission hardware to allow leap second the data contained within the GPS signal to propagate to the receiver. (item #6 in the attachment). 2.Related to this DCR: Page 23, Section 6.4: ""The AFLN... is used to schedule delivery of time-critical programming."" Repeating the comment made in (13), above, the AFLN alone is not sufficient to determine the current time (e.g., U.S. Standard Time). The leap- second count is also required. Provision should be made to communicate this information up from Level 1 to Level 2.(item #18 in the attachment)

s – Rev C Change Summary DCR Page 21, Section 6.2.1, first line explains that all values greater than binary are reserved for future expansion, yet was assigned to MP7 which was identified as an active primary service mode. The backward compatibility defaults on the next page only map to MP6 (and not MP7). Please indicate whether is reserved or not and if not, then should MP7 be mapped as a default.(item #13 in attachment). 2.Related to above: Page 21, Table 6-4: There seems to be a conflict between this table and Table 4-1 on page 7. In Table 4- 1, both MP5 and MP7 show P3 at 25 kbit/s (kbits/sec). However, Table 6-4 shows MP5 as the default mode for MP7, with P3 ""free to be redefined."" Similarly, Tables 7-7 and 7-9 (page 29) seem to define P3 quite tightly in both MP5 and MP7. This MP7 has multiple contradictions. (item #14 in the attachment)

s – Rev C Change Summary DCR132 Page. 23, 3rd and 4th line. Change MP7 to MP6 in both places. Only MP1 and MP6 don’t include the P3 logical channel. Also, include a reference to where long and short interleaver depth is defined. (item #15 in the attachment)

s – Rev C Change Summary DCR Page 28 Section need to reconcile Table 7-2 with the middle paragraph above-change 2Tf to Tf for the L1Frame Pair in the Table 7-2.(item #22 in attachment) 2.Related to this DCR: Page 29 & 21 There is another conflict between Table 6-4 on page 21 and Tables 7-7 and 7-9 on page 29. In comparing MP7 to MP5, Table 6-4 says that P1' is backwards compatible and P1 may be redefined. However, Table 7-9 shows no P1' signal at all (e.g., no Tdd in P1 latency). This does not appear to be simply the omission of Tdd, since the Robustness drops from 1 to 4 also. Tables 7-7 through 7-9 depict no P’. (item #23 in the attachment)

s – Rev C Change Summary DCR 144 Per the 12/4/02 NRSC review, several changes are recommended. See the attached questions. #3 - add words ""of the protocol stack"" to the definition of ""reserved"" in Tables 12-1 and #6 - Page 40, add a phrase in front of last paragraph ""in cases where digital diversity delay is applied"" #6 - Figures 7-6, 7-7, 7-8, change P1 to P1' in the extended sidebands. #7 - Similarly, in Figures 7-10, 7-11, and 7-12, change S1 to S1' in the extended sidebands. Also, page 40, section 10.2, ""Transmit"" should not be capitalized in mid sentence. #11 - Page 41, section , add a definition of S. #14 - page 42, section replace ""That transfer frames define..."" with ""The fact that transfer frames define..."" #17 - Page 61, Table The second occurrence of variable B should be lower case. #21 - page 61 - delete the extra ""pt"" - note: This is pasted into word as an object that floats over the text. Make sure it does not belong some other place in the text. #22 - page 62 - Change text to ""readRow = INT(i / C)WriteRow= INT( (i MOD b) / C) "" #24 - Section delete the extra period at the end of the section. #25 - Change reference to ""Table 11-2 through Table 11-7"" #26 - delete ""="" from the subscript in #29 - page 82 - change ""comprised"" to ""composed""
