In a Digital structure several TV and radio programs can
share a common transmitter network, Multiple programs in
the same channel bandwidth
Satellite
Digital
Excellent quality over the whole
coverage area, independent of
the distance between transmitter and
receiver.
Analog TV
Reception quality directly depends on the
field strength. With increased distance the
reception quality continuously decreases
as the signal gets closer to the noise floor.
Low Reception Quality
Excellent Reception Quality
This is given in decibels (dB) and is
referred to as the C/N specification.
When the receiver C/N drops below the
specified level, the receiver software
blanks the picture and sound, or switches
to a backup source, until the C/N again
raises above the threshold.
Analog TV
Reception quality depends on field
strength. As the distance between the
transmitter and receiver increases
reception quality continuously decreases
due to noise in the picture. This is referred
to a Graceful Degradation.
ReceptionQuality
Distance between transmitter and receiver
Digital
The transition from the covered to not
covered area is very sharp. The position
can vary slightly according to atmospheric
(weather) conditions.
The border between the covered and not
covered regions is determined by the RF
carrier to noise ratio (signal to noise)
within the receiver.
• Larger FFT with extended
bandwidth has lower out of
band level than 2k (DVB-T)
• 8MHz bandwidth, GI = 1/8
• Extended bandwidth in 8k, 16k,
32k FFT
• Out of band energy is lower
with larger FFT size

 Capacity limits for
simple Gaussian noise
channel
 With LDPC can get close
to theoretical limit
 Typically 30% gain in
capacity compared
with DVB-T codes.
Capacity (Bit Rate Mbps)
The maximum capacity of DVB-T is approximately 31.67 Mbps
The maximum capacity of DVB-T2 is approximately 50.34 Mbps
CNR (Carrier to Noise Ratio)
The carrier to noise ratio is controlled by the modulation mode and the code
rate.
With DVB-T2 there has been significant improvements in CNR.
One point to remember with DVB-T and DVB-T2 the lower the transport stream
bit rate the lower the CNR, this equals a more robust signal. As you increase the
transport stream bit rate the CNR increases. This equals a less robust single.
This means a lower quality signal goes father than a higher quality signal.
Compared to DVB-T, DVB-T2 offers a higher transport stream bit rate with a
comparable CNR.
The chart below shows the CNR for DVB-T (8MHz Channel)
