ETSIEN 301 210 V1.1.1 (1999-03)51ScopeThe present document describes the modulation and channel coding system (denoted the "System" for the purposes ofthe present document) for Digital Satellite News Gathering (DSNG) and other contribution applications by satellite.According to ITU-R Recommendation SNG.770-1 [12], SNG is defined as "Temporary and occasional transmissionwith short notice of television or sound for broadcasting purposes, using highly portable or transportable uplink earthstations.". The equipment should be capable of uplinking the video programme (or programmes) with its associatedsound or sound programme signals. Optionally it should be capable of providing two-way co-ordination(communication) circuits and data transmission according to EN 301 222 [6]. The equipment should be capable of beingset up and operated by a crew of no more than two people within a reasonably short time. Limited receiving capabilityshould be available in the uplink terminal to assist in pointing the antenna and to monitor the transmitted signal, wherepossible.Digital television contribution applications by satellite consist of point-to-point or point-to-multipoint transmissions,connecting fixed or transportable uplink and receiving stations, not intended to be received by the general public.Although these applications often transmit a single TV service, the Transport Stream multiplex flexibility also allowsmulti-programme TV services with associated sound, including commentary sound channels and data services; in thiscase multiple service components are Time Division Multiplexed (TDM) on a single digital carrier.Maximum commonality with EN 300 421 [3] is maintained, such as Transport Stream multiplexing [1], scrambling forenergy dispersal, concatenated error protection strategy based on Reed-Solomon coding, convolutional interleaving andinner convolutional coding. The baseline System compatibly includes (as a subset) all the transmission formats specifiedby EN 300 421 [3], based on Quaternary Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) modulation and is suitable for DSNG services aswell as for other contribution applications by satellite. Nevertheless, other optional (annex C explains the meaning of"optional" within the present document) transmission modes are added, using Eight Phase Shift Keying (8PSK)modulation and Sixteen Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (16QAM), in order to fulfil specific applicationrequirements. These optional modes can be very efficient in certain contribution applications by satellite.The following warnings should be taken into account while using the high spectrum efficiency modes, 8PSK and16QAM:·they require higher transmitted EIRPs and/or receiving antenna diameters, because of their intrinsic sensitivity tonoise and interferences;·they are more sensitive to linear and non-linear distortions; in particular 16QAM cannot be used on transpondersdriven near saturation;·they are more sensitive to phase noise, especially at low symbol rates; therefore high quality frequency convertersshould be used (see annex E);·the System modulation/coding schemes are not rotationally-invariant, so that "cycle-slips" and "phase snaps" inthe chain can produce service interruptions; therefore frequency conversions and demodulation carrier recoverysystems should be designed to avoid cycle-slips and phase snaps.The System is suitable for use on different satellite transponder bandwidths, either in single carrier per transponder or inmultiple carriers per transponder (Frequency Division Multiplex, FDM) configuration. Annex E gives examples ofpossible use of the System.The present document:-gives a general description of the System;-specifies the digitally modulated signal in order to allow compatibility between pieces of equipment developedby different manufacturers. This is achieved by describing in detail the signal processing principles at themodulator side, while the processing at the receive side is left open to different implementation solutions.However, it is necessary in the present document to refer to certain aspects of reception;-identifies the global performance requirements and features of the System, in order to meet the service qualitytargets.SIST EN 301 210 V1.1.1:2003

TheSystem is designed to support source coding as defined in [1], [2], [5].The System transmission frame is synchronous with the MPEG-2 multiplex transport packets (see [1]).The System shall use QPSK modulation, and optionally (annex C explains the meaning of "optional") 8PSK and16QAM modulations, and the concatenation of convolutional and RS codes. For 8PSK and 16QAM, "pragmatic" trelliscoding shall be applied, optimizing the error protection of the convolutional code defined in EN 300 421 [3]. Theconvolutional code is able to be configured flexibly, allowing the optimization of the system performance for a givensatellite transponder bandwidth (see annex E).Digital television transmissions via satellite can be affected by power limitations, therefore ruggedness against noise andinterference has been one of the design objectives of the System. On the other hand, when larger power margins areavailable, spectrum efficiency can be increased to reduce the cost of the space segment. Therefore the System offersmany transmission modes (inner coding and modulations), giving different trade-offs between power and spectrumefficiency. For some specific contribution applications, some modes (QPSK and 8PSK) thanks to their quasi-constantenvelope, are appropriate for operation with saturated satellite power amplifiers, in single carrier per transponderconfiguration. All the modes (including 16QAM) are appropriate for operation in quasi-linear satellite channels, inmulti-carrier Frequency Division Multiplex (FDM) type applications.The following processes shall be applied to the data stream (see figure 1):·transport multiplex adaptation and randomization for energy dispersal (according to EN 300 421 [3]);·outer coding (i.e. Reed-Solomon) (according to EN 300 421 [3]);·convolutional interleaving (according to EN 300 421 [3]);·inner coding:-punctured convolutional coding (according to EN 300 421 [3]);-"pragmatic" trellis coding associated with 8PSK and 16QAM (optional);·bit mapping into constellations:-QPSK (according to EN 300 421 [3]);-8PSK (optional);-16QAM (optional);·squared-root raised-cosine baseband shaping:-roll-off factor a = 0,35 according to EN 300 421 [3] for QPSK, 8PSK and 16QAM;-additional optional roll-off factor a = 0,25 (for the optional modulations 8PSK and 16QAM);·quadrature modulation (according to EN 300 421 [3]).SIST EN 301 210 V1.1.1:2003

ETSIEN 301 210 V1.1.1 (1999-03)104.4.1Transport multiplex adaptation and randomization for energydispersalThis processing shall be in accordance with EN 300 421 [3], as summarized in the following.The System input stream shall be organized in fixed length packets, following the MPEG-2 transport multiplexer (seeISO/IEC 13818-1 [1]). The total packet length of the MPEG-2 transport Multiplex (MUX) packet is 188 bytes. Thisincludes 1 sync-word byte (i.e. 47HEX). In order to comply with ITU Radio Regulations and to ensure adequate binarytransitions, the data of the input MPEG-2 multiplex shall be randomized. To provide an initialization signal for thedescrambler, the MPEG-2 sync byte of the first transport packet in a group of eight packets is bit-wise inverted from47HEX to B8HEX. This process is referred to as the "Transport Multiplex Adaptation".4.4.2Outer coding (RS), interleaving and framingThis processing shall be in accordance with EN 300 421 [3], as summarized in the following.Reed-Solomon RS (204,188, T = 8) shortened code, from the original RS(255,239, T = 8) code, shall be applied to eachrandomized transport packet (188 bytes) to generate an error protected packet. Reed-Solomon coding shall also beapplied to the packet sync byte, either non-inverted (i.e. 47HEX) or inverted (i.e. B8HEX).Convolutional interleaving with depth I = 12 shall be applied to the error protected packets. This results in aninterleaved frame, composed of overlapping error protected packets and delimited by inverted or non-invertedMPEG-2 [1] sync bytes (preserving the periodicity of 204 bytes).4.4.3Inner coding (convolutional)Processing of the convolutional encoder shall be in accordance with EN 300 421 [3], as summarized in the following.The System shall allow for a range of punctured convolutional codes, based on a rate 1/2 mother convolutional codewith constraint length K = 7 corresponding to 64 trellis states (figure 2). This will allow selection of the mostappropriate level of error correction for a given service or data rate. The System shall allow convolutional coding withcode rates of 1/2, 2/3, 3/4, 5/6 and 7/8.1-bitdelayserialbit-stream1-bitdelayY output (133 octal)1-bitdelay1-bitdelay1-bitdelay1-bitdelayModulo-2 adderModulo-2 adderX output (171 octal)inputFigure 2: Convolutional code of rate 1/2The punctured convolutional code shall be used as given in table 2, according to EN 300 421 [3].NOTE:At the receiver, each of the code rates and puncturing configurations is in a position to be tried until lockis acquired. Phase ambiguity in the demodulator is able to be resolved by decoding the MPEG-2 [1] syncbyte delimiting the interleaved frame. Automatic receiver synchronization is an important feature inDSNG applications, to simplify and accelerate the satellite connection setup.SIST EN 301 210 V1.1.1:2003
