Broadcasting:
• InTelecommunication, broadcasting refers to a method of transferring a
message to all recipients simultaneously
DigitalVideo Broadcasting (DVB)
• DVB is a set of standards that define digital broadcasting using existing
satellite, cable, and terrestrial infrastructures.
• The term digital television is sometimes used as a synonym for DVB

DVB-S
• DVB-S is an abbreviation for "DigitalVideo Broadcasting — Satellite“.
• It is the original DigitalVideo Broadcasting Forward error correction and
demodulation standard for Satellite Television.
• Dates from 1995, in its first release, while development lasted from 1993 to
1997.
Frequency in Use by Nayatel
• Frequency range being used by Nayatel for receiving channels is 10.3GHz to
12.3GHz.
• Note: Communication spectrum for military can use upto 18GHz frequency.
DVB-S2
DigitalVideo Broadcasting - Satellite - Second
Generation
• designed as a successor for the popular DVB-S system.
• Developed in 2003
• Impact2 and Impact4 Encoding Schemes are used to lessen the Bandwidth
• The development of DVB-S2 coincided with the introduction of HDTV
and H.264 (MPEG-4 AVC)
Difference Between DVB-S, DVB-S2
• DVBS is basically SD (NOT HD) and DVBS2 is HD
• DVBS sends in MPEG2 (like what you find in DVD`s) and DVBS2 sends in
MPEG4 which is a better compression algorithm
• DVB-S use QPSK as Modulation Mode while DVB-S2 uses QPSK, 8PSK,
16PSK modulation modes.
Improvements:
• In March 2014, DVB-S2X specification has been published by DVB Project
DVB-C(DigitalVideo Broadcasting – Cable)
• DVB European consortium standard for the broadcast transmission
of digital television over cable.
• first published by the ETSI in 1994
• DVB-C (VHF/UHF) uses QAM: 16-QAM, 32-QAM, 64-QAM, 128-QAM or
256-QAM.
• transmits an MPEG-2 or MPEG-4 family digital audio/digital video stream
DVB-C2
• Development announced in 2008
• The final DVB-C2 specification was approved by the DVB Steering Board in April 2009.
• DVB-C2 allows bitrates up to 83.1 Mbit/s on a 8 MHz channel bandwidth when using 4096-QAM
modulation.
• Future extensions will allow up to 97 Mbit/s and 110.8 Mbit/s per channel using 16384-QAM and
65536-AQAM modulation
• Muliplets Multiple Streams into Single Transport Stream.
• Only Lies for UHF
Being Used in Nayatel
• Nayatel is using 64QAM with 8MHz gap, using which total of 38.2Mbps of
data can be streamed.

Editor's Notes

  • #13  is a digital television broadcast standard that has been designed as a successor for the popular DVB-S system. It was developed in 2003 by the DVB Project, an international industry consortium, and ratified by ETSI (EN 302307) in March 2005. The standard is based on, and improves upon DVB-S and theelectronic news-gathering (or Digital Satellite News Gathering) system, used by mobile units for sending sounds and images from remote locations world-wide back to their home television stations. DVB-S2 is envisaged for broadcast services including standard and HDTV, interactive services including Internet access, and (professional) data content distribution. The development of DVB-S2 coincided with the introduction of HDTV and H.264 (MPEG-4 AVC) video codecs.
  • #20 This optional table may provide information about the multiplexes and transport streams on a given network
  • #22 MPEG transport stream is a standard format for transmission and storage of audio, video, and Program and System Information Protocol data.  The SDT contains some details about the services that are contained in the data broadcast in a particular network.
