Transmitter identification (TxID) is uniquely assigned to each transmitter to identify and control the transmitters in Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) 3.0 broadcast networks, especially on a single frequency network (SFN). A transmitter also generates the TxID signal in addition to the ATSC 3.0 host signal but combines them, resulting in interfering with each other. This paper summarizes the TxID technique in ATSC 3.0 physical layer standard, including the detection performance, influences on the host ATSC 3.0 signal, and applications.
