The Creonic DVB-S2X demodulator is a low-complexity high-performance solution that allows for symbol rates of up to 100 MSymb/s on state-of-the-art FPGAs. DVB-S2X is the next generation satellite transmission standard which is an extended version of its well-established predecessor DVB-S2. The new specification allows for spectral efficiency gains of up to 50% by offering lower roll-off factors, higher modulations and a finer code rate granularity compared to DVB-S2.
DVB-S2X Demodulator
Overview
Key Features
- Compliant with DVB-S2X.
- Supports CCM, ACM and VCM modes.
- Support for QPSK up to 256-APSK.
- Support for short blocks (16200 bits) and long blocks (64800 bits).
- Output of XFECFRAMEs for further processing by the Creonic DVB-S2X FEC decoder IP core.
Benefits
- The demodulator contains radio interface, decimator, timing recovery, equalizer, frame acquisition, and carrier recovery.
- Demodulator performs and supports spectrum inversion, DC offset correction, I/Q imbalance correction, decimation, coarse frequency estimation, timing recovery, matched filtering, downsampling, frame synchronization, PL descrambling, fine frequency correction, phase correction, automatic gain control, and PL deframing.
- Low-power and low-complexity design.
- Very fast synchronization due to different sets of filter coefficients for acquisition and tracking mode.
- Perfectly fits to the Creonic DVB-S2X LDPC/BCH decoder.
- Available for ASIC and FPGAs (Xilinx, Altera).
