1 Introduction
This manual covers the conguration of ENENSYS DVB-T2 Modulator for
DVB-T2 television Broadcast purpose on DVB-T2 standard.

DVB-T2 is a digital terrestrial transmission system developed by the DVB

Project.

It is the most advanced such system in the world and introduces

the latest modulation and coding techniques to enable highly ecient use of
valuable terrestrial spectrum for the delivery of audio, video and data services
to xed, portable and mobile devices.

As with its predecessor, DVB-T2 uses OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplex) modulation, with a large number of sub-carriers delivering a
robust signal.

Also in common with DVB-T, the new specication oers a

range of dierent modes making it a very exible standard.

In the realm

of error correction, DVB-T2 uses the same coding that was selected for
DVB-S2.

LDPC (Low Density Parity Check) coding combined with BCH

(Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquengham) coding oers excellent performance in the

presence of high noise levels and interference, resulting in a very robust signal.

Several options are available in areas such as the number of carriers, guard
interval sizes and pilot signals, so that the overheads can be minimised for
any target transmission channel. A new technique, called Rotated Constellations, provides signicant additional robustness in dicult channels. Also, a
mechanism is provided to separately adjust the robustness of each delivered
service within a channel to meet the required reception conditions (e.g. indoor antenna/roof-top antenna). This same mechanism allows transmissions
to be tailored such that a receiver can save power by decoding only a single
programme rather than a whole multiplex of programmes.

DVB-T2 also species a transmitter diversity method, known as MISO (Multiple Input - Multiple Output), which improves coverage in smallscale singlefrequency networks. Finally, DVB-T2 has dened a way that the standard can
be compatibly enhanced in the future through the use of Future Extension
Frames.

4.2.2

Alarms Settings

This windows allows to manage, for each alarm, several information such as
trap generation, Relay out activation/deactivation or alarm severity for log
purpose.

Note: on demand, it is possible to have 2 more dry relays connectors on back

17

www.enensys.com

panel. This allows to redirect alarms to one or the other relay for specic use
(medium and critical alarms for instance).

The temperature threshold can also be set by the user. This generates alarm

when the system temperature is overcrossed (value can be set between 30 C


and 60 C).
Note: the system

is self-protected against high temperature independently

from the above parameter. In any case, if for any reason (fan failure, miss-

ing air conditionning, etc..) the internal temperature crosses 70 C, the system will force mute to reduce its internal temperature.

A manual switch-

o/switch-on will be used to restart the NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator.

Input Setup parameters

NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator accepts either DVB-T2 baseband or T2-MI streams
as input, over DVB-ASI physical link or over Gigabit Ethernet connector.
For any connection over ASI, two data inputs are provided, with automatic
near seamless switch. For DVB-T2 baseband stream, the maximum throughput accepted on one input is 50 Mbps, with 188 bytes/DVB-T2 packet framing.

ASI redundancy management

By default, NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator

automatically detects the presence

of a valid DVB-T2 transport stream on one input. If no valid TS is detected,

then the unit will automatically switch to the other one.
That is, user can feel free to force and select a given input (ASI1 or ASI2).

features a built-in high quality clock and syn-

A high stability 10 MHz OCXO (Oven Controled

Oscillator) provides the internal clock reference to the modulation core clock
system.
An external 1PPS reference has to be used if specic characteristics reference are needed, or for SFN operation (to lock modulator's processing clock
to an external reference).

If NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator

is congured to operate with an external

reference (from external 1PPS reference or from internal GPS receiver), then

21

www.enensys.com

on system manager request, and upon 1pps signal loss, NetMod-DVB-T2

modulator

will continue broadcasting or stop on user-dened crietria (cf

Spectrum Control panel).

Modulator's processing clock is always locked on a clock reference (either
internal or external reference) and the value of this processing clock depends
on the channel bandwidth to operate.

Internal 10MHz reference: internal 10MHz generated by the local oscillator is used as clock reference

External 10MHz reference: external 10MHz clock received on the rear

side of the unit is used as clock reference

Internal GPS 1PPS reference:

optional internal GPS delivering the

1PPS synchonization is used as reference (later availability)

External 1PPS reference: external 1PPS clock received on the rear side
of the unit is used as clock reference

4.3.2

Network

This section is related to all Network setups such as:




Network operation mode: either MFN or SFN

Network information: indicates which type of information is present on
the ASI or IP input (either TS or T2-MI stream).

If T2-MI stream

is available, it is possible to declare manually the TS PID (Set Piping

PID), or to allow the modulator to retreive it automaticcaly.

T2-MI individual adressing: this concerns the advanced modulator management that allows any T2-Gateway to force informations such as
Transm itter Id, MISO Tx identication, etc. . . on the modulator.




Cell ID: identify the cell number for SFN transmission

SFN test mode: this feature is used to remove the P1 symbol on each
T2 frame, allowing thus to identify in SFN the transmitter over others
(spectrum analyzer needed),




Network ID: identify the network number for SFN transmission

T2 System ID: identify the equipment number within the transmission
chain

22

www.enensys.com

Frequency: incorporate any frequency information within the transmited

signal. To be noted, pressing the left arrow button allows to copy the
current transmission frequency.

Note: If SFN network is required, T2-MI input type must be selected and
An external 1PPS reference has to be provided.

Frame Structure validation

DVb-T2 complexity led to that some parameters combinations are forbidden.
To avoid any mistake, NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator is naturally delivered with
an intelligent process that check overall combination coherency:

23

www.enensys.com

The left part of this panel gives the validity status of the current conguration. The OK button appears only if the conguration is valid.
On the right side of the preset window, it is possible to nd information about
the frame, frame cells, OFDM symbols and PLPs. In case of bad conguration, the Error panel will automatically appears in this section to indicate the
parameters in cause.

Peak to Average Power Ration - PAPR

Dened for interfacing with power amplier for live broadcast, NetMod-DVBT2 modulator is also delivered with PAPR feature. It can be either activated
or de-activated:

In this set of version (v1.x), NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator is able to manage

one PLP.

Digital Pre-Correction

Linear Pre-Correction

27

www.enensys.com

This panel is used to set the Linear Digital Pre-Correction.

This allows to

correct the frequency-dependent imperfections of the RF components between the modulator and the antenna (particularly the channel lter).

It is

charactarized by :




gain variations over the usefull bandwidth

group delay variations over the usefull bandwidth

Activation of the Linear DPC is done by selecting the Enable Linear PreCorrection tickbox on the top-left window.
Each curve can be updated simply by dragging and dropping the curve points.
Other possibility is to enter directly the value in the right-side array.

Non-Linear Pre-Correction

28

www.enensys.com

This panel is used to set the Non-Linear Digital Pre-Correction. This allows
to overcome the distortion eects due to the non-linear response of the power
amplier.
The non-linear response of the power amplier leads to a signal degradation
both in-band and out-of-band.
Out-of-band degradation consists of a spectral regrowth (called shoulders).
This response can be represented by the AM/AM (amplitude-to-amplitude)
and AM/PM (amplitude-to-phase) curves:

the AM/AM curve indicates the non-linear relationship between the

output and input amplitude.

the AM/PM curve shows the output phase shift as a function of the
input amplitude.

The Non-Linear DPC is based on the pre-distortion techniques. It consists

in introducing `inverse' non-linearity that can compensate the AM/AM and
AM/PM distortions generated by the non-linear amplier.

29

www.enensys.com

It is important to note that unlike the Linear Pre-Correction, the Non

Linear Pre-Correction is not function of the frequency but only of the power
of each sample of the input signal.

This concept is illustrated in the case of the AM/AM correction in the

diagram below:

The blue curve represents the typical AM/AM response of the power
amplier.

The orange curve is the ideal correction curve which is the 'inversed'
curve of the power amplier.

The green curve is the result of the power amplier response with the
correction. featuring an extended linear range.

In the Graphical User Interface, the AM/AM and AM/PM curves correspond to the correction curves to apply. The axes represents:

for both curves, the X-axis is the power in dB of the signal before the
DPC, relative to the mean power;

for the AM/AM curve, the Y-axis is the gain correction in dB to apply
to the input signal;

30

www.enensys.com

for the AM/PM curve, the Y-axis is the phase correction in degree to
apply to the input signal.

The clipping level is an extra parameter for the AM/AM correction curve.
The clipping consists in saturating the signal power at the output of the modulator (after the DPC) to a maximum value. It is used to prevent from using
the PA too close from its saturation area, which might be armful for the
power amplier or the channel lter. In other words, the clipping level refers
to the output back-o. The clipping level is expressed in dB relative to the
mean power of the input signal (before the DPC).
The gure below represents the power spectra with and without Digital PreCorrection. The shoulders attenuation can be measured on a spectrum analyzer by the dierence between the power measured in-band and the power
measured at a given out-of-band frequency, as shown in the gure.

As ex-

pected, the shoulders attenuation are signicantly increased by the use of

DPC.
Typically, the frequency used to measure the shoulders, relative to the center
frequency, is +/- 2.5% of the usefull bandwidth. (for instance 4.2 MHz for a
8MHz usefull bandwidth).

Activation of the Non-Linear DPC is done by selecting the Enable NonLinear Pre-Correction tickbox on the top-left window.

31

www.enensys.com

Each curve can be updated simply by dragging and dropping the curve points.
Other possibility is to enter directly the value in the right-side array.
Clipping Level can also be adjusted from 17dB to 6dB (Step 0.5dB)

4.3.6

Guideline for DPC settings

Both Linear and Non-Linear DPC arrays are displaying 2 columns for each
parameter (cf above). For instance, Non Linear DPC array is composed of
Gain ref and Gain , Phase ref and Phase.
While setting the best DPC curves, it can be usefull to perform some changes
on the points of the curve, and come back easily to a well-known situation
(reference). These reference curves can be set thanks to the Store current
conf  button, and restored thanks to the Apply reference cong button.
While doing this, the reference curves are now displayed in the dedicated
columns and can be compared to the applied ones (displayed in Green and
Red).

Linear DPC
The corrections curves for the linear DPC can be set easily by analyzing the
RF signal at the output of the channel lter. By the following way :

for the gain curve, inverse the ripples measured in the spectrum in the
useful bandwidth.

for the group delay curve, inverse the group delay variations measured
in the useful bandwidth.

Non-Linear DPC
If the AM/AM and AM/PM characteristics of the power amplier are known,
the AM/AM and AM/PM corrections can be obtained by 'inversing' them
and by osetting them to the mean power of the output signal without DPC.
Otherwise, the corrections curves have to be set empirically by the following
way :




reset both correction curves

consider rst the AM/AM curve.

Set each point individually starting

from the most-right point and moving point per point towards the left
as follow :

32

www.enensys.com

When moving gradually each point up, the shoulders attenuation is

expected to rst increase (or remain constant) and then decrease.

Memorize the position for which the shoulders attenuation is the

highest.

try again moving downward. Keep the best position between the
two directions and proceed with the next point. Thus, we assume
that each point of the curve can be set independently of its left
side. This curve should be roughly monotonous increasing.
:

Note

the shoulder attenuation used here refers to the mean value

between the left side and the right side attenuation.

Consider now the AM/PM curve and proceed the same way. Unlike the
AM/AM one, there is no typical shape for the AM/PM curve.

4.3.7

Special Tests

NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator

implements DVB-T2 special test modes that

can be enabled from the GUI or from the corresponding SNMP command:





PRBS or MPEG sequences insertion replacing the ASI input;

Central Carriers cancellation;
Single tone insertion.

To be noted: when NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator

is in test mode, RF or

IF pictogram at the bottom of the window is ashing.

33

www.enensys.com

When PRBS test mode is enabled, ASI inputs are ignored and a 9, 15, 23
or 24 bits PRBS sequence data pattern is generated internally by the modulator and routed to the modulation stage. The product behavior is similar with
MPEG stream generation. Below is the pictogram displayed at the bottom of
the GUI:

When Central Carrier cancellation is enabled, the Bandwidth central frequency is muted. This allows to highlight any hidden interference frequency.

When Single tone insertion is enabled, a single tone (sinus) is inserted with
a setable power (from 0 to -10dBm, step 0.1dBm) while COFDM spectrum
power level is 0 dBm.

4.3.8

Output Setup

This section is divided in 3 parts:

34

www.enensys.com

left side assigned to

output state: allows to stop broadcasting outgoing stream,

UnMute condition: gives the possibility to provide the output spectrum either in a straigh or smooth transition (smooth 2 seconds
level fade-in to protect power amplication chain downstream exciter)

spectrum inversion: used to invert the output stream spectrum

top right side dedicated to RF output conguration or IF output conguration. To be noted: only one output type is available, depending
on the modulator type. Dual ouput (1 IF output and 2 RF outputs) is
available as hardware option.

bottom right side dedicated to modulator behavior:

Warmup delay at unit power-on:

operator willingness can be to

wait for optimal oscillator stability (in SFN mode for instance),
and thus wait for a while before broadcating,

ASI input signal loss: if ASI input is lost for any reason, operator
can chose to stop or to continue broadcasting stung packets,

Internal Oscillator Warmup: the output signal shall not be as stabilized as expected during the rst minutes after power-on. This
parameter allows to wait for the correct internal oscillator temperature before broadcasting a signal.

Upon 1PPS or 10MHz signal loss:

this parameter indicates the

NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator behavior when losing the synchronization of the external reference. Mute on reference loss indicates
that NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator will stop broadcasting while no
more external clock is available in input. Mute on lock loss indicates that NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator will mute on internal reference lock loss, i.e. when internal clock will be considered too far
from the expected derivation.

Frequency setup
If NetMod-DVB-T2 type is RF, the above parameters are made available:

35

www.enensys.com

RF Center Frequency: Sets center frequency of RF output spectrum

(100-870MHz, step 1 Hz)

Frequency oset:

sets an oset to the main center frequency (from

-8.39Mhz to +8.39MHz, step 1Hz)

RF Main Output Level: Sets the Main output level (from +2dBm to
-20dBm,

RF Monitoring oset level: sets the monitoring oset attenuation (from

-20dB to -40dB). For instance, if Main output is set to -20dBm and
monitoring oset is set to -25dB, the monitoring output level will be
-20dBm - -25dB = -45dBm.

If NetMod-DVB-T2 type is IF, the above parameters are available:

IF Center Frequency:

Sets center frequency of RF output spectrum

(20-85MHz, step 1 Hz)

Frequency oset:

sets an oset to the main center frequecy (from

-8.39Mhz to +8.39MHz, step 1Hz)

36

www.enensys.com

IF Main Output Level: Sets the Main output level attenuation (from
0dBm to -10dBm,

IF Monitoring oset level:

monitoring oset attenuation is set to -

20dB. For instance, if Main output is set to -5dBm, the monitoring

output level will be -5dBm -20dB = -25dBm.

37

4.4 Monitoring
This panel displays real time information and statistics about input bitstreams
as well as about the detected discrepancies that may have occurred all along
the transmission process.

The monitoring panel provides information about log events and input
bitrates:

Log event window: tracking of any alarms triggered, with it associated

severity.

Real-time input bitrates: monitoring of ASI1, ASI2 and IP input bitrates.

A ltering combo box can be used to lter out log messages, based on
severity level. It is also possible to save the le in .XML or .CSV format for
remote analysis or clear the log.

38

www.enensys.com

Finally, a real-time bitrates graphical view displays the input stream evolution over time for each inputs. Total bitrate is set apart from usefull (data) bitrate. This provides usefull information regarding possible modulation scheme.

5 Using NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator through SNMP

5.1 Overview
The products use SNMP as the core communication protocol.

Any HTTP

request issued from the Web GUI or any command sent through the front
panel will be done by using SNMP. The products can not only be monitored
using SNMP but can also be fully controlled.
A MIB le is available on request.
MIB Browser from iReasoning can be used to test the
NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator SNMP feature.

It can be used for monitoring

(Get and Trap) as well as for control (Set).

5.2 Overall MIB data structure

In SNMP, the information is described by means of objects within a tree-like
data structure (known as a

MIB tree ).

Some branches have been specied

by IETF in various RFCs (Internet standards) and cannot be modied. One

example is the RFC-1213 which describes system information such as time
elapsed since system start-up.

43

www.enensys.com

ENENSYS SNMP agent implements mib-2 dened by RFC-1213.

This

MIB is mandatory for SNMP compliance purposes. Furthermore, as one can

see, root identier 23986 has been assigned to ENENSYS Technologies. Any
MIB dened by ENENSYS

5.2.1

Technologies will be under this node.

MIB tree for all ENENSYS devices

Any ENENSYS

SNMP agent implements three MIBs les.

are common to ALL ENENSYS

Two MIB les

devices:

ENENSYS-MONITOR-MIB.mib:

This MIB le describes how alarms

and logs are managed for all ENENSYS devices. This MIB is described
in details in section 5.5, page 46.

ENENSYS-ENTERPRISE-MIB.mib: Any settings common to all

ENENSYS platforms are gathered within this MIB le.

Detailed de-

scription is available section 5.4, page 46.

The third MIB le is specic to the product type. Product type can be
NN6-MIP, FastCaster, CastXPlorer etc. This MIB le is intended for
conguring the device (please note Alarms conguration is not part of
this specic MIB since this is implemented into ENENSYS-MONITORMIB.mib).

44

www.enensys.com

The integration of NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator into any supervision system will require to implement both common MIB les as well as ENENSYSNETMOD-DTMB-MIB.mib (device conguration and advanced monitoring).

5.3 SNMP ports

NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator

follows SNMP standard, and uses ports 161

(Agent Port) and 162 (Trap Port) for SNMP communication.

5.4 Connecting NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator to a NMS

It is possible to use the NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator together with a Network
Monitoring System (NMS) to make the most of its capabilities.
First, in the  Network panel, information about the NMS must be specied in the  Trap receiver box.

Specify the IP address of the NMS used

to congure the NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator

and/or collect information.

The SNMP community denes the relationship between the NetMod-DVBT2 modulator's SNMP server system and the NMS. The community acts like
a password to control the NMS access to the server. If the community name
contains spaces, enclose it in quotation marks.

45

www.enensys.com

5.6 Integrating ENENSYS-MONITOR-MIB.mib le

Alarms, logs and traps management is achieved using ENENSYS-MONITORMIB.mib le.

Lots of work have been done in order to provide supervi-

sion system with a state-of-the-art management. When opening ENENSYSMONITOR-MIB.mib, four main branches are gathered under the root node

alarmsAndLogs.

de-

All the information related to alarms

Alarms management has been designed so that the supervision
system is not required to go through

is only intended for monitoring

purposes. Settings are not available (read-only MIB objects).

 alarmCurrentTable

is intended to register all active alarms: If the

alarm disappears (turns to O status), it will be removed from this

table. The idea is to provide the monitoring system with an instant
view of the system, but also to detect potential alarms missed by
the monitoring system.

 alarmTable

is intended for conguring any alarm supported by the

device.

to nd out whether it has missed a trap or not: the monitoring system
only has to pull

compared to last time. If the value has changed, this may signify the
monitoring system has missed a trap. Please note that a log entry is
not linked to an alarm congured to send a trap (unless all alarms are

6 Upgrading NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator

6.1 Getting information on current release
The current rmware version used on the NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator is
available from the About tab in the Information box.
Through SNMP, this information is available from the
ENENSYS-ENTERPRISE-MIB le, then from the platform > device > deviceFirmwareVersion leaf. It is also possible to know about the last upgrade
performed on the NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator through the deviceLastUpdateTime leaf.

If this OID returns

0, it means that the NetMod-DVB-T2

modulator is using the factory settings rmware.

Information on current release is also available from the front panel (please
refer to section 2, page 7).

6.2 Installing an upgrade rmware

To upload an upgrade rmware on the NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator, go to
the About tab.

In the Device update box, click Select update.

Select the

appropriate .bin le from the le selection dialog box, then click Update.
Conrm with Yes.

Through SNMP, the NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator can be upgraded from

the ENENSYS-ENTERPRISE-MIB le, then from the platform > device >
deviceUpdateAddress leaf.

Set this OID to an URL corresponding to the

appropriate .bin le for upgrade.

49

www.enensys.com

7 Getting general information about the NetModDVB-T2 modulator

It is possible to get information on a specic NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator on
the network.

Using the Web interface, go to the About panel.

This panel

provides information about the device:

Device parameters such as serial number and rmware version

This information can also be accessed through SNMP, in the ENENSYSENTERPRISE-MIB > platform > device node.

50

www.enensys.com

8 Identifying the NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator controlled

When you have several products located in the same premises, you can identify
the one currently controlled through the GUI by clicking on the identication
button on the About panel.

If you click this button, the LED as well as the LCD on the front panel
will start blinking for 10 seconds.

51

www.enensys.com

9 Using the dry relay out interface

NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator

features a relay out interface.

This interface

can be connected to a dry contact or contact closure manager to achieve a

monitoring system.

In order to trigger an alarm on this interface, NetMod-DVB-T2 modulator must be congured to raise a dry relay out signal on a specic alarm. To
do so, go to the Status panel. Within the list of alarms, the Dry Relay check
box column is used to enable or disable the relay out signal. When the box is
checked, the alarm raised on the parameter sends out a dry relay out signal
to the electrical interface (Common (C) connected to Normally Closed (NC)).

Through SNMP, the dry relay out signal on each parameter can be managed through the ENENSYS-MONITOR-MIB > alarmsAndLogs > alarms >
alarmTable table. To enable dry relay out, set the alarmCongRelayOut to
2, and to disable dry relay out, set the alarmCongRelayOut to 1.

Note:

Electrical level of alarm state (Common (C) connected to Nor-

mally Closed (NC)) means that at least one of the parameters enabled for
dry relay has raised an alarm. It only goes back to normal state (Common
(C) connected to Normally Open (NO)) if no parameter has raised an alarm.
It is therefore recommended to limit the number of parameters enabled for
sending out dry relay signals, as it is not possible to be informed of which
parameter has raised the alarm.

52

www.enensys.com

Double dry relay option

On demand, it is as well possible to have a DB9 connector located on the
back panel, giving the possibility to handle 2 more dry relays, identied in the
Graphical User Interface as R2 and R3 (R1 is the default dry relay mentioned
above).

The pin connection are as follow:

rst alarm set - R2: Pin 3 normally open, Pin 8 common, Pin 4 normally
closed

second alarm set - R3:

Pin 6 normally open, Pin 2 common, Pin 7

normally closed
