DVB-RCS2 Multi-Carrier Receiver

Overview

DVB-RCS2 (Digital Video Broadcast – Second Generation DVB Interactive Satellite System) is the latest ETSI standard of the second generation for digital data transmission via satellites.
The Creonic DVB-RCS2 Multi-Carrier Receiver supports multiple frequency time domain multiple access (MF-TDMA), performs all tasks of an DVB-RCS2 receiver including carriers separation, baseband conversion, demodulation, and turbo decoding. It can process intermediate frequency (IF) real signal with center IF frequencies between 0 and 100 MHz.

The Creonic turbo decoder is included in the receiver to provide users with Frame PDUs at the output.

Key Features

Compliant with ETSI EN 301 545-2 (DVB-RCS2)
Support for Linear Modulation Bursts of Table A-1
Optional support for Spread-spectrum
Linear Modulation Bursts waveforms of Table A-2
Support for BPSK, QPSK, 8-PSK,16-QAM
Supports real, intermediate frequency signal at input.

Benefits

Supports MF-TDMA using the DVB-RCS2 protocol.
The receiver performs multi-carrier processing, in-cluding gain adjustment, timing correction, decimation, filtering, bursts synchronization, derotation, decrambling, phase and frequency correction, DVB-RCS2 deframing, turbo decoding, and CRC-16 / CRC-32 checks.
On-the-fly reconfiguration of superframe and number of active carriers.
Configurable amount of turbo decoder iterations.
Low-power and low-complexity design.
AXI4-Lite interface for controlling and for retrieving sta-tus information.
Collection of statistics (error rates, superframe and timeslot counters, frequency and timing offsets, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)).
Validated on Xilinx RFSoC board with the Creonic DVB-RCS2 modulator
Available for ASIC and FPGAs (Xilinx, Intel).
