ELNET is a digital TV wholesaler and retailer located in Iceland. It offers a wide range of digital TV products from small DVB meters to large DVB transmitters out of its 600 square meter premises. ELNET believes in both terrestrial and satellite DVB reception and expects fiber optic products to increase in popularity. Asmundur Einarsson has owned and managed ELNET since 2000. The company supplies around half of Iceland's digital TV transmitters and sells 200-300 satellite dishes annually, with 85cm and 1m dishes being most popular. ELNET added fiber optic systems in 2011 and expects their contribution to grow in the next few years.
The document discusses proposed extensions to the DVB-S2 satellite communication standard to enable higher data rates. Some of the key extensions discussed are:
1) Reducing roll-off factors and side lobes of digitally modulated carriers to allow transponders to be positioned closer together;
2) Using wider bandwidth transponders that are 3 times wider than typical transponders to improve spectral efficiency;
3) Adding a new 64 APSK modulation scheme to transmit more data in the same bandwidth.
4) Providing more modulation and coding schemes and forward error correction options to optimize the balance between useful and error correcting payload.
The document discusses the Texas STaR Chart, which is a teacher self-assessment tool aligned with the state's long-range technology plan. It has four sections that evaluate Teaching and Learning, Educator Preparation, Leadership Support, and Infrastructure. The presentation provides an overview of each section and shows results from Highlands Junior School from 2006-2009. The school's overall STaR Chart rating has improved, moving it closer to the target level of technology integration. While progress has been made, further work is still needed according to the conclusion.
The document outlines Minnesota patient rights regarding contraception, emergency contraception, and abortion. It states that in Minnesota, patients have the right to receive birth control and emergency contraception regardless of age, and minors can receive abortions without parental consent. It emphasizes that patients should not rely solely on their providers, as some providers may not disclose all options due to biases or religious beliefs. The document encourages patients to be informed of their legal rights in order to make fully informed medical decisions.

Ultra high definition television (UHDTV) provides significantly higher resolution than standard HDTV. UHDTV resolution is 4K (3840 x 2160) or 8K (7680 x 4320), which is 4 and 16 times the resolution of 1080p HDTV respectively. UHDTV also provides wider color gamut, higher frame rates up to 120 frames per second for smoother 3D video, and more advanced audio capabilities. However, UHDTV requires much greater bandwidth for transmission and new equipment that is not yet widely available. While the benefits of UHDTV are clear, widespread adoption will depend on addressing technological and infrastructure challenges.
This document discusses IPTV networks and protocols. It explains that UDP is better suited than TCP for live video and audio transmission due to TCP's need for packet acknowledgement. Multicast transmission sends one stream to multiple receivers without using additional bandwidth, while Unicast sends individually to each receiver. A 1000Mb network is recommended for reliable use with IPTV to avoid bottlenecks. Network monitoring software like Wireshark can analyze IPTV traffic and identify sources.

Overall, the app was found to enhance the Tiviar receiver experience.
2. ARION’s Weg naar de Top
Alexander Wiese
Vorig jaar schreven we al een rap-
port over ARION; zij zijn een hoge-kwali-
teit fabrikant, gevestigd in Zuid-Korea en
hebben de slogan hierboven ondertussen
in hun marketingcampagne geadopteerd.
Wij wilden weten wat ARION in het afgelo-
pen jaar allemaal gedaan heeft. Toen ver-
scheen namelijk de eerste HD ontvanger
op de markt. Op dit moment heeft ARION
een nieuwe HD box, die ook in deze uitgave
van TELE-satelliet geïntroduceerd wordt.
Thomas Roh, directeur Verkoop en Mar-
keting legt ons uit: “Hier in Seoel hebben
we momenteel 20% meer werknemers dan
een jaar geleden.” ARION is een denktank,
dat betekent dat meer dan de helft van hun
werknemers – momenteel 70 – werkzaam
is in Research en Ontwikkeling.
De productie van satellietontvangers
vindt hoofdzakelijk plaats in DongGuan in
China, waar 200 werknemers zijn. Thomas
is vrij optimistisch over de toekomst: “Voor
2007 verwachten we een verkoop van 80
miljoen US dollars en we vertrouwen erop
dat we in 2008 door de 100 miljoen dollar-
grens breken.”
Volgens Thomas Roh, “komen 50% van
onze inkomsten uit Europa, 20% uit India,
20% uit het Midden-Oosten en Noord-
Afrika en 10% uit Zuid-Amerika en Austra-
lië.” Thomas verklaart deze aantallen:
“We zijn niet alleen bij de High-end busi-
ness betrokken, maar zijn ook zeer actief
bezig met het veroveren van de groeiende
markt.”
Hij speelde het klaar om ons te verras-
▲ Thomas Roh, Directeur van de Verkoop en Marke-
ting afdeling, in zijn kantoor. TELE-satelliet maga-
zine is altijd binnen handbereik.

zijn verhuurd; dit is ruimte voor latere uitbreiding. Alle
overblijvende verdiepingen worden door ARION ingeno-
men. Management is op de derde verdieping terwijl de
ingenieurs en programmeurs met al hun PC’s en analyzers
de vierde, vijfde en zesde verdieping in beslag nemen.
sen met een nieuwtje: “Onlangs hebben
we een verkoopkantoor geopend in Buenos
Aires in Argentinië.” En dat is nog niet
alles: “We zijn ook van plan vestigingen
te openen in Zuid-Afrika en India.” ARION
beschouwt ook de CIS landen als een inte-
ressante markt.
We vroegen Casey Joo, Managing Direc-
tor van het AV R&D laboratorium, welke
boxen ARION met zo’n succes levert: “50%
van de satellietontvangers hebben inge-
bouwde CAS en 30% zijn FTA units.”
Thomas Roh vertelde ons meer: “Hoewel
PVR boxen maar 20% van onze omzet
innemen, tekenen zij voor 40% van ons
inkomen.” PVR’s worden meer en meer
belangrijk, vooral de modellen met externe
harddisk en een SATA verbinding met de
ontvanger. De data overdrachtsnelheid
naar de harddisk moet zeker bij het ver-
werken van HD signalen zeer hoog zijn.
De SATA interface is hiervoor het meest
geschikt.
ARION is ook bezig met de ontwikkeling
van nieuwe producten. Hieronder vallen een
ENTAVIO ontvanger voor de Duitse markt
en een Irdeto embedded combo voor de
Australische markt. Veel grote operatoren
van kabel en satelliet TV zijn ook klanten
van ARION, in Ierland, Slowakije, Argenti-
nië en India. “We werken ook aan een HD
PVR”, vertelde Casey Joo.
ARION werkt ook aan IPTV. Casey
gelooft dat de primaire markt vooral zal
bestaan uit interne kabelnetwerken. Hij
somt op wat hieronder verstaan wordt:
“Hotels, ziekenhuizen, scholen en univer-
siteiten.” Een andere interessante doel-
groep is kabel TV operatoren die triple
play service of TPS willen leveren (kabel
TV, Internet en VoIP) en ARION antwoordt
op die vraag met een hybride IPTV die
naar verwachting in het derde kwartaal
van 2008 op de markt is.
Wanneer zal de HD boom uiteindelijk
arriveren? We vroegen dit aan Thomas Roh
en hij had zijn antwoord snel klaar: “Dat zal
in het vierde kwartaal van 2008 zijn”, net
op tijd voor de kerstperiode. ARION kan het
weten – zij produceren HD ontvangers.
