EN 300 421 V1.1.2 (1997-08)61ScopeThe present document describes the modulation and channel coding system (denoted the "System" for the purposes ofthe present document) for satellite digital multi-programme Television (TV)/High Definition Television (HDTV)services to be used for primary and secondary distribution in Fixed Satellite Service (FSS) and Broadcast SatelliteService (BSS) bands. The System is intended to provide Direct-To-Home (DTH) services for consumer IntegratedReceiver Decoder (IRD), as well as collective antenna systems (Satellite Master Antenna Television (SMATV)) andcable television head-end stations, with a likelihood of remodulation, see EN 300 429 (bibliography).The System uses Quaternary Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) modulation and concatenated error protection strategy basedon a convolutional code and a shortened Reed-Solomon (RS) code.The System is suitable for use on different satellite transponder bandwidths.Compatibility with Moving Pictures Experts Group-2 (MPEG-2) coded TV services (see ISO/IEC DIS 13818-1 [1]),with a transmission structure synchronous with the packet multiplex, is provided. Exploitation of the multiplex flexibilityallows the use of the transmission capacity for a variety of TV service configurations, including sound and data services.All service components are Time Division Multiplexed (TDM) on a single digital carrier.The present document:-gives a general description of the System for satellite digital TV transmission;-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.2Normative referencesReferences may be made to:a)specific versions of publications (identified by date of publication, edition number, version number, etc.), inwhich case, subsequent revisions to the referenced document do not apply; orb)all versions up to and including the identified version (identified by "up to and including" before the versionidentity); orc)all versions subsequent to and including the identified version (identified by "onwards" following the versionidentity); ord)publications without mention of a specific version, in which case the latest version applies.A non-specific reference to an ETS shall also be taken to refer to later versions published as an EN with the samenumber.[1]ISO/IEC DIS 13818-1 (June 1994): "Coding of moving pictures and associated audio".[2]Forney, G.D.

To achieve a very high powerefficiency without excessively penalizing the spectrum efficiency, the System shall use QPSK modulation and theconcatenation of convolutional and RS codes. The convolutional code is able to be configured flexibly, allowing theoptimization of the system performance for a given satellite transponder bandwidth (see annex C).Although the System is optimized for single carrier per transponder Time Division Multiplex (TDM), it is able to beused for multi-carrier Frequency Division Multiplex (FDM) type applications.Figure 1: Functional block diagram of the SystemSIST EN 300 421 V1.1.2:2003
EN 300 421 V1.1.2 (1997-08)9The System is directly compatible with MPEG-2 coded TV signals (see ISO/IEC DIS 13818-1 [1]). The modemtransmission frame is synchronous with the MPEG-2 multiplex transport packets.If the received signal is above C/N and C/I threshold, the Forward Error Correction (FEC) technique adopted in theSystem is designed to provide a "Quasi Error Free" (QEF) quality target. The QEF means less than one uncorrectederror-event per transmission hour, corresponding to Bit Error Ratio (BER) = 10-10 to 10-11 at the input of the MPEG-2demultiplexer.4.2Adaptation to satellite transponder characteristicsTransmissions of digital multi-programme TV services will use satellites in both the FSS and the BSS bands. The choiceof transponder bandwidth is a function of the satellite used and the data rates required by the service.The symbol rate shall be matched to given transponder characteristics. Examples based on computer simulations for ahypothetical satellite chain, not including interference effects, are given in annex C.4.3InterfacingThe System, as defined in the present document, shall be delimited by the following interfaces given in table 1:Table 1: System interfacesLocationInterfaceInterface typeConnectionTransmit stationInputMPEG-2 [1] transportmultiplexfrom MPEG-2multiplexerOutput70/140 MHz IFto RF devicesReceive installationOutputMPEG-2 transportmultiplexto MPEG-2demultiplexerInputTBDfrom RF devices(indoor unit)4.4Channel coding4.4.1Transport multiplex adaptation and randomization for energy dispersalThe System input stream shall be organized in fixed length packets (see figure 3), following the MPEG-2 transportmultiplexer (see ISO/IEC DIS 13818-1 [1]). The total packet length of the MPEG-2 transport Multiplex (MUX) packetis 188 bytes. This includes 1 sync-word byte (i.e. 47HEX). The processing order at the transmitting side shall always startfrom the MSB (i.e. "0") of the sync word-byte (i.e. 01000111).In order to comply with ITU Radio Regulations and to ensure adequate binary transitions, the data of the input MPEG-2multiplex shall be randomized in accordance with the configuration depicted in figure 2.The polynomial for the Pseudo Random Binary Sequence (PRBS) generator shall be:1 + X14 + X15Loading of the sequence "100101010000000" into the PRBS registers, as indicated in figure 2, shall be initiated at thestart of every eight transport packets. To provide an initialization signal for the descrambler, the MPEG-2 sync byte ofthe first transport packet in a group of eight packets is bit-wise inverted from 47HEX to B8HEX. This process is referredto as the "Transport Multiplex
