Performance Analysis of Substituting DVB-S2 LDPC Code for DVB-T Error Control Coding System

Tero Jokela, Performance Analysis of Substituting DVB-S2 LDPC Code for DVB-T Error Control Coding System. In: IEEE International Symposium on Broadband Multimedia Systems and Broadcasting 2008, 2008.

Abstract:

As HDTV (High Definition Television) services are the next
big thing in the television broadcasting, the work for the
next generation terrestrial Digital Video Broadcasting
(DVB-T2) standard has started. Since HDTV channels
require more capacity, new technologies as compared to
current terrestrial DVB-T standard are necessary. One
improvement is to select a more efficient Forward Error
Control (FEC) code. A potential candidate for this is the
Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) code specified in the in
the DVB-S2 (second generation satellite Digital Video
Broadcasting) standard. It is stated in the call for
technologies issued by the DVB project, that this code is
the working assumption. It is further stated that if the DVBS2
LDPC code is not suitable for terrestrial channels, other
channel coding schemes could be considered. In this paper
the performance of a system where DVB-T concatenated
Reed-Solomon-convolutional coding scheme is replaced by
the DVB-S2 LDPC code is studied by simulations. The aim
is to investigate the performance of the LDPC code in a
terrestrial channel model.
