DVB-H Signal Scanning</title><prolog><metadata><keywords/></metadata></prolog><conbody>

<p>This topic gives you information about the initial setup for DVB-H Signal

Scanning. </p>

<section><title>Purpose</title> <p>The purpose of this topic is to set and

get the scan configuration for DVB-H Signals. </p> </section>

<section><title>Required Background</title><p>You may wish to specify the

scan parameters, before initiating a signal scan. But this step is optional

and by default, if you do not specify any parameters hardware defaults are

used. If you wish to set scan parameters, this is done by calling <xref href="GUID-617CD367-CF68-3932-8E77-669820A7B9AF.dita#GUID-617CD367-CF68-3932-8E77-669820A7B9AF/GUID-B988EC58-EAB0-3644-8AF7-1DBCE06E3E7B"><apiname>RDvbhReceiver::SetScanConfiguration()</apiname></xref> with

a <xref href="GUID-D84731C4-A3C8-37E3-887A-25906530E595.dita"><apiname>TDvbhScanConfiguration</apiname></xref> object containing the following

information: </p> <ul>

<li id="GUID-01EF5C12-BB71-57FA-B50F-7B13095F0367"><p>Start Frequency (in

Hz) : First frequency to scan. </p> </li>

<li id="GUID-507724E9-9BFB-5C31-B719-E76BAEF5442A"><p>End Frequency (in Hz)

: Last frequency to scan. </p> </li>

<li id="GUID-D053DDFC-B583-5003-9D0F-F551B68EC433"><p>Signal Bandwidth (in

Hz) : Increment frequency is used to compute the next frequency to scan. </p> </li>

indicate that hardware defaults are used. </p> </li>

</ul> <p>You can determine the current scan configuration being used by the

receiver by calling <xref href="GUID-617CD367-CF68-3932-8E77-669820A7B9AF.dita#GUID-617CD367-CF68-3932-8E77-669820A7B9AF/GUID-10C24DC2-2E9A-3671-94D6-B1910B0FA4A2"><apiname>RDvbhReceiver::GetScanConfigurationRI()</apiname></xref>,

<section><title>Setup and Configuration Requirements</title><p>In order to

initiate a signal scan, mobile TV middleware must implement <xref href="GUID-7A97A0BE-1EDA-380F-B5BB-630E3E0614C4.dita#GUID-7A97A0BE-1EDA-380F-B5BB-630E3E0614C4/GUID-5B931754-A048-3AB0-AC2E-C62472A56717"><apiname>MDvbhScanObserver::DvbhScanProgress()</apiname></xref>.

This function is called by the receiver during the scan process, whenever

it has results to report back to the client. Typically, it is called at least

once each time the receiver finishes scanning a particular frequency. Its

argument is a <xref href="GUID-3F9D2682-8DA6-3493-8B78-8AF1B841A895.dita"><apiname>TDvbhScanResult</apiname></xref> which contains the following

//Context: The following takes place in some method of an active object

//that implements MDvbhScanObserver (e.g. class CExampleClient :

//public CActive, public MDvbhScanObserver). Its member iReceiver is an

//RDvbhReceiver that has previously been initialised.Receiver state is NoPlatform

User::LeaveIfError(iReceiver.Scan(*this, iStatus));

//While the active object is outstanding,

//CExampleClient::DvbhScanProgress() will be called periodically by

//the receiver, each time it has finished scanning a frequency.  When the

//active object completes, if all went well, the object will have a list

//of available IP Platforms at its disposal.

// Example CExampleClient methods

time to complete due to bad reception conditions, the end user may wish to

cancel it before it has completed. This is done by calling <xref href="GUID-617CD367-CF68-3932-8E77-669820A7B9AF.dita#GUID-617CD367-CF68-3932-8E77-669820A7B9AF/GUID-C696FEFD-63F9-3654-8315-1FE2504AE037"><apiname>RDvbhReceiver::CancelScan()</apiname></xref>. </p> <p>If
