The DVB-S2-LDPC-BCH block is a powerful FEC (Forward Error Correction) subsystem for Digital Video Broadcasting via Satellite.
In Digital video broadcasting for digital transmission for satellite applications, a powerful FEC sub-system is needed. FEC is based on inner LDPC (Low-Density Parity Check) codes concatenated with outer BCH (Bose ChaudhuriHocquenghem) codes, allowing Quasi Error Free operation close to the Shannon limit.
DVB-S2-LDPC-BCH IP
Overview
Key Features
- Irregular parity check matrix
- Layered Decoding
- Minimum sum algorithm
- Soft decision decoding
- BCH decoder works on GF (2m) where m=16 or 14 and corrects up to t errors, where t = 8, 10 or 12
- ETSI EN 302 307-1 V1.4.1 (2014-11) compliant
- Long and short frame lengths
- No error floor to QEF in Standard
- Easy to integrate within receiver all code rates and modulation orders
Benefits
- High performance
- High data rate
