DVB-T/T2 Broadcasters by up to 30%, While Competition with Distribution Platforms Such As Satellite, Cable and Telco Is Only Increasing DVB-T/ T2 COMPREHENsiVE BROADCAst DistRibUTION SOLUTION National Feed Regional Feed – Naples Regional Feed – Rome The release of the 700-MHz band will reduce spectrum availability for DVB-T/T2 broadcasters by up to 30%, while competition with distribution platforms such as satellite, cable and telco is only increasing. As broadcasters migrate to HD and seek to deliver an enhanced user experience, they are also under constant pressure to offer more services per multiplex as a means for reducing transmission costs. A comprehensive DVB-T/T2 distribution solution from Harmonic can help digital terrestrial television (DTT) operators overcome these challenges by combining high compression efficiency with the ability to deliver outstanding video and audio regardless of the format and standard. The Harmonic DVB-T/T2 solution also helps the bottom line by offering statmux generation, regionalization, satellite distribution to towers, and support for Hybrid Broadcast Broadband TV (HbbTV) service delivery. Monetization Regionalization — the ability to customize content for national, regional and local markets — is a key differentiator for the DTT platform, allowing broadcasters to deliver local news and programs either 24/7 or on a timeshare basis, and to increase their revenue by offering advertising slots in particular markets. The DTT platform further enables revenue optimization through the delivery of pay-TV services. In this value chain the Harmonic solution offers content protection and access rights distribution to subscribers. Broadband & Interactive Services HbbTV is the broadcasters’ answer to OTT competition. Live TV streaming, enhanced EPG, start-over TV, catch-up TV, VOD and Push VOD can all be offered via HbbTV v2.0 — a capability addressed by the Harmonic DVB-T/T2 solution. Complete Coverage Country regulations often require high-population coverage for DTT operators. The Harmonic DVB-T/T2 solution simplifies the ability to satisfy this requirement by enabling satellite service to viewers in white spaces, provided that a single satellite feed supports both DVB-T/ T2 multiplex distribution and DTH satellite reception. • Superior video and audio quality • Addresses any business model: free • Powerful and flexible toolkit for to air, free to view, and pay TV satellite distribution • Optimized multiplexes to reduce costs HIGHLIGHTS • Support for all market CAS solutions • Robust system design and high • Support for all formats and standards resilience • Broadband support via HbbTV v2.0 harmonicinc.com COMPREHENsiVE BROADCAst DistRibUTION SOLUTION DVB-T/ T2 Naonal Headend: Mulplex Generaon Regular Mulplex Distribuon to Towers SI/PSI, HbbTV, MODULATION CAS DVB-S/S2 RF Switch Demodulator, Redundancy HbbTV Modulator Descrambler Switch Signal Carousel T2-MI Acquision SMD 9300 USS0212 ProView* Amethyst III SDI, or EPG CAS SMD 9300 ProView* ProView 7100 TS/IP Roung Statmux Monitor * ProView 7100 (4x RF), ProView 8100 (1x RF) ProView 8100 Iris Mulplexer DVB-T2 Redundancy SDI TS/IP or TS/IP or TS Splicer Scrambler Gateway Switch (ASI) SMPTE SMPTE (A/V/DPI) MPTS T2-MI MPEG-2, AVC, ProStream NetProcessor Amethyst III* 2022-6/IP 2022-6/IP HEVC Broadcast NetProcessor Regional Headend: Regional channel playout, 24/7 inseron, regional variaon, ad inseron Encoders * TS/IP switch with NMX SCTE30 Electra X2* SDI or Ad Server GPS Demodulator, Playout, Splicer, Playout TS/IP IP Descrambler Ad Server, Encoder 1+1 DVB-T2 Gateway + Switch Electra XT Sapphire T2 Deframer + Statmux Spectrum X GPS NTP Electra VS BXF, CCMS FTP ProView 7100 TS Spectrum XE TS 1pps MediaGrid T2-MI Flextream Trac Clips NetProcessor Amethyst III ProView 8100 Spectrum XE NetProcessor ✔ PURE codec HEVC, AVC, MPEG-2 ✔ 2022-6 with Electra X & NMX NMX NMX Harmonic offers a complete DTT solution for DVB-T/T2 broadcasters.

  • DTT) Multiplex Licences Expiring in 2022 and 2026
    Consultation on the renewal of Digital Terrestrial Television (DTT) multiplex licences expiring in 2022 and 2026 18 December 2020 Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Foreword By the Rt Hon. John Whittingdale OBE MP, Minister of State for Media and Data UK television audiences are fortunate to enjoy an incredibly broad range of programming and to possess a variety of methods by which to watch it. The Digital Terrestrial Television platform, better known as Freeview, is one of the most popular methods of accessing TV content in the UK. Since its launch in 1998 it has become one of the biggest and best-loved platforms, transmitting the nation’s favourite programmes to 18 million homes across the country. Freeview is also a vital part of the public service broadcasting (PSB) system, ensuring that PSB content is free at the point of use and widely accessible, with nearly 99% coverage across the UK. Public service broadcasting plays an important role in the economic, cultural and democratic life of our country; keeping people informed, educated and entertained. The value of PSB - and the Freeview platform that continues to underpin it - has been particularly evident during the Covid-19 pandemic, as an important source of news, in countering misinformation, and in bringing the nation together through shared moments. PSB and commercial content is provided on the Freeview platform through separate digital networks known as multiplexes, of which there are six nationally. Two of the national multiplex licences - Multiplex 2 and Multiplex A - are expiring in 2022. To renew these licences, the government is required to make secondary legislation.

    Global Journal of Computer Science and Technology: A Hardware & Computation Volume 15 Issue 2 Version 1.0 Year 2015 Type: Double Blind Peer Reviewed International Research Journal Publisher: Global Journals Inc. (USA) Online ISSN: 0975-4172 & Print ISSN: 0975-4350 Design and Implementation of Data Scrambler & Descrambler System using VHDL By Naina K. Randive & Prof. G. P. Borkhade Sant Gadge Baba Amaravati University, India Abstract- Multimedia data security is very important for multimedia commerce on the internet and real time data multicast. An striking solution for encrypting data with adequate message security at low cost is the use of Scrambler/Descrambler. Scramblers are necessary components of physical layer system standards besides interleaved coding and modulation. Scramblers are well used in modern VLSI design especially those are used in data communication system either to secure data or re- code periodic sequence of binary bits stream. However, it is necessary to have a descrambler block on the receiving side while using scrambling data in the transmitting end to have the actual input sequence on the receiving end. Scrambling and De-scrambling is an algorithm that converts an input string into a seemingly random string of the same length to avoid simultaneous bits in the long format of data. Scramblers have accomplish of uses in today's data communication protocols. On the other hand, those methods that are theoretical proposed are not feasible in the modern digital design due to many reasons such as slower data rate, increasing information, circuit hazards, uncountable hold- up etc. Therefore it is requisite for the modern digital design to have modified architecture to meet the required goal.

  • The Future of Digital Terrestrial Television
    THE FUTURE OF DIGITAL TERRESTRIAL TELEVISION Purpose of this document This document sets out the BBC Trust’s response to the Ofcom consultation document on the future of digital terrestrial television (DTT). Context The Trust’s consideration of Ofcom’s proposals must take into account a number of different aspects of our remit: • Our duties under the BBC Charter and Agreement to act as guardian of the licence fee and the public interest, to represent the interests of licence fee payers and to exercise rigorous stewardship of public money • Our regulatory interest in ensuring the efficient use of spectrum by the BBC • Our regulatory obligations with respect to any ‘non-service’ application that might be made to the Trust by the BBC Executive This response has been prepared with each of those interests in mind. The Trust welcomes Ofcom’s consultation. As noted in our conclusions on the Public Value Test for the BBC Executive’s proposed high definition (HD) service, we would like to see the BBC’s HD service launched on Freeview as soon as possible. We also recognise that there are advantages, in terms of achieving the critical mass necessary for existing Freeview users to upgrade to HD-compatible equipment, in seeking ways to establish other PSB HD services on the DTT platform in a co-ordinated way. Ofcom shared this view in its MIA work, concluding that the Trust should: “…ensure that the launch of any BBC HD channel on DTT is considered in the context of the potential delivery of a wider range of HD services on DTT.
