Mobile DVB-RCS - Car News • Deployed & ready for service in under 5 minutes • No technical intervention required • Available in 76cm, 96cm or 1.2m with 1W, 2W or 4W Ku BUC
Mobile DVB-RCS DVB-RCS Based Approach • Broadband operation in Ku and Ka FSS bands on secondary basis to fixed satellite and terrestrial services • Comply with FSS off-axis emission requirements using spectrum spreading, if required, for both return and forward links • Comply with flux density limits of other terrestrial services by monitoring of mobile terminal location and shutting down of transmission in exclusion zones (defined proximity to terrestrial facilities ) • Doppler pre-compensation in terminal • Handover of forward and return path carriers, rerouting of traffic and signalling and reassignment of associated logical resources and identifiers.
Mobile DVB-RCS System Architectures & Scenarios:System architecture
1000 Watt Phase Combined C Band SSPA With Backup Redundancy, Hub Mount RF & Modem Portfolio • S / C / Ku / Ka / X Bands • Solid State Power Amplifiers • Phased Combined Systems • Block Up Converters • Transceivers • Up/Down Converters • Boosters • LNAs/LNBs • Redundancy Switches • Modems • Antenna Controllers
Advantech AMT75 Modems (1) • Modulator and Demodulator in one 19inch rack unit • ASI / HSSI / RS-422 / RS-530 / 10/100 Base-T / E-1 / E-3 interfaces • DVB-S / DVB-DSNG backward compatibility • SNMP Control, Web control, RS232 or Telnet CLI and RS485 packet protocol • DC power option • L-Band Modem (950 –2000MHz TX) • 950-2150MHz RX • LNB power and 22kHz switching tone • Active front panel • Separate IP interface for data and control
Advantech AMT75 Modems (2) • Only Broadcast Demodulator supporting SHORT FEC Blocks today • Widest bit-rate and Symbol rate of any DVB-S2 Modulator / Demodulator or Modem • Supports up to 32APSK today • Fully Supports DVB-S2 Generic stream mode now Based on an FPGA professional demodulator not a QPSK/8PSK only consumer demodulator chipset
Advantech AMT75 Modems (3) • Support for both SHORT and NORMAL FEC frame • NORMAL FEC Block is 64Kbits • SHORT FEC Block is 16Kbits • Latency is between 1 and 2 blocks • Below 1Mbps NORMAL block can introduce significant latency! • Bit-rates from 128Kbps to >100Mbps from one unit! • Store and Forward at 256kbps and HD H.264 4.2.2 at 20Mbps or even higher can be supported by the same Modem
Advantech AMT75 Modems (4) • Simple ACM support if return link is present • System simply adopts the highest throughput available on the link • If conditions deteriorate then the Modulation / Coding is made more rugged and the bit-rate reduced • Reduce the number of ‘live’ link failures • Receiver auto-configures Modulation and Coding • Users just have to enter Frequency and bit-rate • Modulation and Coding data is carried in a well protected header before each FEC block • This is how ACM is signalled
For Direct-to-Home Broadcasters • Chipsets are available now • All support a limited subset (QPSK/8PSK) • Constant Coding Modulation only • Likely operating mode will be • 8PSK • Rate 2/3 • Typically 30MSymbols/S @ 0.20 roll-off • Giving 59Mbits/S compared to 37Mbits/S today 60% more data with little change in operating point Add MPEG-4 to the mix for a channel explosion!
Spectrum Comparison DVB-S2 8PSK 2/3 35Mbps 19.2MHz B/W DVB-S QPSK ¾ 35Mbps 34.2MHz B/W
For Contribution links • DVB-S2 was also designed to replace DVB-DSNG • For the same spectrum efficiency S2 offers.. • 2.5dB better performance at QPSK • 1.5dB better performance at 8PSK / 16-APSK
DVB-S2 DSNG specific features • Next generation Contribution Links • MPEG-4 4.2.2 HD and SD • Store and forward functionality • Bi-directional satellite link • IP based H.264 option • VOIP / Web-surfing / Intranet / FTP features • DVB-S2 has in the tool-box • SHORT FEC FRAME (16Kbit blocks) • Generic Stream Mode (efficient IP transmission) • Adaptive Coding Modulation (better link robustness)
For Distribution links • VCM would allow services to be transmitted on one signal tailored for different link budgets • Radio on QPSK ½ to 1m dishes • HDTV on 16APSK 5/6 to 3m dishes
For Data providers • ACM could revolutionise DVB-RCS type systems • Each user gets ‘tailored’ Modulation / Coding • Service can tolerate rain fade via ‘dynamic ACM’ • ESA predicts a 2.6 fold increase in throughput with DVB-S2 and ACM
