Comparison of DVB-H Link Layer FEC Decoding Strategies in a Mobile Fading Channel

Heidi Himmanen, Ali Hazmi, Jarkko Paavola, Comparison of DVB-H Link Layer FEC Decoding Strategies in a Mobile Fading Channel. In: The 17th Annual IEEE International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications (PIMRC'06), IEEE, 2006.

Abstract:

DVB-H offers reliable high data rate reception for mobile
handheld and battery-powered devices. A link layer with error
correction is defined to work on top of the DVB-T physical
layer. The DVB-H standard suggests to use Reed-Solomon
coding combined with cyclic redundancy check error
detection as the link layer forward error correction. However,
there exist more powerful methods for decoding. In this
paper, a detailed comparison of five different decoding
strategies is presented of which all are compatible with the
current standard. Comparison is based on frame error, IP
packet error and byte error rates after decoding. Also, the
effect of errors on visual experience of a video stream is
analyzed.
