Annex 1 Main characteristics of the DVB-S2 system (referred to as System E) DVB-S2 is the second-generation specification for satellit

16、e broadband applications developed by the DVB (Digital Video Broadcasting) Project in 2003 and became ETSI standard EN 302 307 in 2004. EN 302 307 specifies framing structure, channel coding and modulation for different types of satellite applications: broadcasting of standard definition and high-de

17、finition TV (SDTV and HDTV); interactivity (including Internet access) for satellite broadcasting applications (for integrated receivers-decoders (IRDs) and personal computers); contribution applications, such as digital TV contribution, distribution and news gathering; data content distribution and

18、 internet trunking. 1The word “shall” in this ETSI standard should be considered as “should” in this ITU-R Recommendation. Rec. ITU-R BO.1784 3 To be able to cover all the application areas while still keeping the single-chip decoder at reasonable complexity levels, DVB-S2 is structured as a tool-ki

19、t, thus enabling the use of mass market products also for contribution or niche applications. The DVB-S2 system has been specified around three concepts: best transmission performance, approaching Shannon limit, total flexibility and reasonable receiver complexity. To achieve the best performance-co

20、mplexity trade-off, achieving an appreciable capacity gain over DVB-S for conventional broadcast applications, DVB-S2 benefits from more recent developments in channel coding and modulation: low-density parity check (LDPC) codes are adopted combined with quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK), 8-PSK,

21、16-APSK (amplitude and phase shift keying) and 32-APSK modulations, for the system to properly work on the non-linear satellite channel. Framing structure allows maximum flexibility for a versatile system and synchronization also in worst-case configurations (low signal-to-noise ratios, SNR). For in

22、teractive point-to-point applications such as IP unicasting in connection with a return path, the adoption of the ACM functionality allows to optimize the transmission parameters for each individual user on a frame-by-frame basis, dependant on path conditions, under closed-loop control via the retur

23、n channel (connecting the receiver to the DVB-S2 uplink station via terrestrial or satellite links, signalling the receiver reception condition). This results in a further increase of the spectrum utilization efficiency of DVB-S2 over DVB-S, allowing the optimization of the space segment design, thu

24、s making possible a drastic reduction of the cost of satellite-based IP services. DVB-S2 is so flexible that it can cope with any existing satellite transponder characteristics, with a large variety of spectrum efficiencies and associated SNR requirements. Furthermore it is designed to handle the va

25、riety of advanced audio-video formats currently under definition by the international bodies. DVB-S2 accommodates any input stream format, including single or multiple MPEG Transport Streams (characterized by 188-byte packets), IP as well as ATM packets and continuous bit-streams. Backwards-compatib

26、le modes are also available, allowing existing legacy IRDs to continue working. The DVB-S2 system structure The DVB-S2 system is composed of a sequence of functional blocks, as described in Fig. 1. Signal generation is based on two levels of framing structures: BBFRAME at baseband (BB) level, carryi

27、ng a variety of signalling bits, to configure the receiver flexibly according to the application scenario; PLFRAME at physical layer (PL) level, carrying few highly-protected signalling bits, to provide robust synchronization and signalling at the physical layer. 4 Rec. ITU-R BO.1784 Depending on th

28、e application, DVB-S2 input sequences may be single or multiple MPEG transport streams (TS), single or multiple generic streams, either packetized or continuous. The block identified as Mode Adaptation provides input stream interfacing2, input stream synchronization3(optional), null-packet deletion4

29、(for ACM and transport stream input format only), CRC-8 coding for error detection at packet level in the receiver (for packetized input streams only), merging of input streams (for multiple input stream modes only) and slicing into data fields. A baseband header is then appended in front of the dat

30、a field, to notify the receiver of the input stream format and Mode Adaptation type to notify the receiver of the input stream format and Mode Adaptation type: single or multiple input streams, generic or transport stream, constant coding and modulation (CCM) or ACM, and many other configuration det

31、ails. Thanks to the forward error correction (FEC) protection (covering both the header and the data payload) and the wide length of the FEC frame, the baseband header can in fact contain many signalling bits without losing transmission efficiency or ruggedness against noise. It should be noted that

32、 the MPEG multiplex transport packets may be asynchronously mapped to the baseband frames. Stream Adaptation is then applied, to provide padding in case the user data available for transmission are not sufficient to completely fill a BBFRAME, and baseband scrambling. 2Input sequences may be single o

33、r multiple TSs, single or multiple generic streams (packetized or continuous). 3Data processing in DVB-S2 may produce variable transmission delay. This block allows to guarantee constant-bit-rate and constant end-to-end transmission delay for packetized input stream. 4To reduce the information rate

34、and increase the error protection in the modulator. The process allows null-packets reinsertion in the receiver in the exact place where they originally were. Rec. ITU-R BO.1784 5 Forward error correction (FEC) encoding carries out the concatenation of BCH (Bose-Chaudhuri-Hochquenghem) outer code an

35、d low density parity check (LDPC) inner codes (rates 1/4, 1/3, 2/5, 1/2, 3/5, 2/3, 3/4, 4/5, 5/6, 8/9, 9/10). Depending on the application area, the FEC coded blocks (FEC frames) can have a length of 64 800 or 16 200 bits. When variable coding and modulation (VCM) or ACM are used, FEC and modulation

36、 mode are constant within a frame but may be changed in different frames; furthermore, the transmitted signal can contain a mix of normal and short code blocks. For backwards-compatible modes, the bit-stream at the output of the FEC encoder is further processed together with the DVB-S signal accordi

37、ng to a specified procedure. Bit interleaving is then applied to FEC coded bits for 8-PSK, 16-APSK and 32-APSK to separate bits mapped onto the same transmission signal. Mapping can be chosen among QPSK, 8-PSK, 16-APSK and 32-APSK constellations (see Fig. 2), depending on the application area. QPSK

38、and 8-PSK are typically proposed for broadcast applications, since they are virtually constant envelope modulations and can be used in non-linear satellite transponders driven near saturation. The 16-APSK and 32-APSK modes, mainly targeted to contribution applications, can also be used for broadcast

39、ing, but these require a higher level of available C/N and the adoption of advanced pre-distortion methods in the uplink station to minimize the effect of transponder non-linearity. Whilst these modes are not as power efficient as the other modes, the spectrum efficiency is much greater. The 16-APSK

40、 and 32-APSK constellations have been optimized to operate over a non-linear transponder by placing the points on circles. Nevertheless their performances on a linear channel are comparable with those of 16-QAM and 32-QAM respectively. By selecting the modulation constellation and code rates, spectr

41、um efficiencies from 0.5 to 4.5 bits per symbol are available and can be chosen dependant on the capabilities and restrictions of the satellite transponder used. Physical layer framing has been designed to provide robust synchronization and signalling at the physical layer. Thus a receiver may synch

42、ronize (carrier and phase recovery, frame synchronization) and detect the modulation and coding parameters before demodulation and FEC decoding. The DVB-S2 physical layer signal is composed of a regular sequence of frames (see Fig. 3): within a frame, the modulation and coding scheme is homogeneous,

43、 but may change (in the adaptive coding and modulation configuration) in adjacent frames. Every frame is composed of a payload of 64 800 bits in the “normal frame” configuration, 16 200 bits in the “short frame” one, corresponding to an FEC code block. A header of 90 binary modulation symbols preced

44、es the payload, containing synchronization and signalling information, to allow a receiver to synchronize 6 Rec. ITU-R BO.1784 (carrier and phase recovery, frame synchronization) and detect the modulation and coding parameters before demodulation and FEC decoding. The first 26 binary symbols (the se

45、quence 18D2E82HEX) of the PL header identify the start of the PL frame (SOF, Start Of Frame), the remaining 64 symbols are used for signalling the system configuration. Since the PL header is the first entity to be decoded by the receiver, it could not be protected by the FEC scheme (i.e. BCH and LD

46、PC). On the other hand, it had to be perfectly decodable under the worst-case link conditions (SNR of about 2.5 dB). Therefore, to minimally affect the global spectrum efficiency, the signalling information at this level has been reduced to 7 bits, 5 of which are used to indicate the modulation and

47、coding configuration (MODCOD field), 1 for frame length (64 800 or 16 200 bits), 1 for presence/absence of pilots to facilitate receiver synchronization (as explained below). These bits are then highly protected by an interleaved first-order Reed-Muller block code with parameter rates (64, 7, t = 32

48、), suitable for soft-decision correlation decoding. Independently from the modulation scheme of the PLFRAME payload (FEC code block), the 90 binary symbols forming the PL header are /2-BPSK modulated; this variant of the classical BPSK constellation introduces a /4 rotation on even symbols and /4 on

49、 odd symbols, thus allowing a reduction of the radio-frequency signal envelope fluctuations. The PL frame payload is composed of a different number of modulated symbols depending on the FEC length (64 800 or 16 200 bits) and the modulation constellation, but (excluding the optional pilots) the payload length is always a multiple of a slot of 90 symbols (see Fig. 3), thus showing periodicities which can be exploited by the frame synchronizer in the receiver: once the current PL header has been decoded, the decoder knows exactly the PL frame length and thus the position of th
