  1. University of Canberra Advanced Communications Topics Television Broadcasting into the Digital Era Lecture 5 DTTB Transmission Error Correction by: Neil Pickford

  2. Spectrum of COFDM DTTB 7 MHz Carrier Spacing 2k Mode 3.91 kHz 8k Mode 0.98 kHz AlmostRectangularShape 1705 or 6817 Carriers 6.67 MHz in 7 MHz Channel 7.61 MHz in 8 MHz Channel

  3. 64-QAM - Perfect & Failure

  4. OFDM - Features • Multicarrier - many carriers sharing • Reduced C/N compared to Analogue • Resistant to echoes, Interference etc • Low symbol rate per carrier • ~ 1 kBaud: Long Symbol Period, can Extend with Guard Interval • With FEC becomes COFDM • Uses Fast Fourier Transform [FFT] • ”2k” and “8k” versions • Single Frequency Networks [SFN]

  5. COFDM DTTB Block Diagram Error Correction

  6. Forward Error Correction (FEC) N bits Encode Tx/Rx Decode N bits N+Code N+Code+Error • Broadcast transmission • One way process - Tx to Rx • Not possible to repeat any errored data • Forward Error Correction is a technique used to improve the accuracy of data transmission • Extra redundant bits are added to the data stream • Error correction algorithms in the demodulator use the extra FEC bits to correct data errors • C OFDM uses a Convolutional FEC code

  7. Convolutional Coder 1111001 X Output 1-Bit Delay 1-Bit Delay 1-Bit Delay 1-Bit Delay 1-Bit Delay Data Input 1-Bit Delay Y Output 1011011 6 5 4 3 2 1 0

  8. Puncturing Codes (FEC) • The X and Y outputs of the Convolutional coder are selected in a Puncturing pattern

  9. Inner Coding X Coded Data Data Y • Convolutional coder generates the X & Y codes • Puncturing operation selects X & Y in sequence • Result then scrambled with an interleaver Convolutional Encoder Puncturing Interleaver

  10. Viterbi Decoder • A special type of data decoder designed to work with convolutional FEC codes • Uses the past history of the data to identify valid future data values • Element in the Receiver Only

  11. Reed Solomon (RS) • RS is a Block data correcting Code • Hamming type cyclic Polynomial sequence • Code Generator Polynomial: g(x) = (x+l0)(x+l1)(x+l2)...(x+l15), l=02 Hex • Field Generator Polynomial: p(x) = x8 + x4 + x3 + x2 + 1 • Has special ability to correct multiple bursts of errors in a code block • DVB-T uses 204 bytes for each 188 byte Packet(ATSC uses 207 bytes for each 187 byte Packet) • Can correct 8 bytes in each 204 byte packet

  12. Error Protection - Order Inner Code FEC (2/3) Data Input Interleaver Interleaver Error Protected Data Mapper 188 Bytes 204 Bytes Outer Code RS (204,188) 306 Bytes 204 Bytes 2448 Bits 6 bits x 1512 Carriers6 bits x 6048 Carriers 64 QAM

  13. Guard Interval TG TU 1/8 TS 1/16 1/32 Transmitted Symbol Guard Useful Symbol 1/4

  14. COFDM - Multipath TRANSMITTER A REFLECTIONS 1 Microsecond = 300 Metres DIRECT PATH SYMBOL PERIOD [1 ms] RECEPTION POINT SIGNAL Several µseconds disturbance from echoes. OFDM inherently resistant. 8VSB needs Time Domain Equaliser, symbol period short at 93ns

  15. COFDM - Multipath TRANSMITTER A REFLECTIONS 1 Microsecond = 300 Metres DIRECT PATH GUARD INTERVAL SYMBOL PERIOD RECEPTION POINT SAFE AREA SIGNAL

  16. COFDM - Pre-Echo GUARD INTERVAL SAFE AREA TRANSMITTER A REFLECTIONS 1 Microsecond = 300 Metres SYMBOL PERIOD RECEPTION POINT SIGNAL

  17. COFDM - SFN TRANSMITTER B TRANSMITTER A REFLECTIONS 1 Microsecond = 300 Metres DIRECT PATH GUARD INTERVAL [Variable] SYMBOL PERIOD RECEPTION POINT SAFE AREA SIGNAL

  18. Mobile Services • Antenna Performance • Poor Directivity, Low Gain • Multipath Dominated environment • Doppler • High Speeds for Main Roads and Railways • Low Speeds for Public Transport in Cities • Needs to be Rugged • Choose version of DVB-T that is suitable • Low Bit Rate, Low C/N, Long Guard Interval?

TPS Pilots • Transmission Parameter Signalling is added on selected carriers within the OFDM spectrum(17 for 2k & 68 for 8k) • TPS Carries: • Frame Number in Super Frame: 00 / 01 / 10 / 11 • Constellation Type QPSK / 16-QAM / 64-QAM • OFDM Mode 2k or 8k • Constellation Mode Normal/Hierarchical + a value • Inner FEC Code rate • Guard Interval • System Bandwidth
