Abstract:

DVB-H is a new broadcasting standard, which offers reliable high data rate reception for mobile handheld and battery-powered devices. A link layer, including Reed-Solomon error correction combined with cyclic redundancy check (CRC), is defined in the standard to work on top of the DVB-T physical layer. The DVB-H suggests to use an erasure decoding method based on CRC information. Yet, the decoding method is not strictly determined in the standard. This paper investigates the performance of four different Reed-Solomon erasure decoding schemes for DVB-H link layer forward error correction.
