DVB-RCS Turbo Decoder

  • Part Number: CREONIC_TURBO_DVB_RCS
  • Vendor: Creonic GmbH
  • Partner Tier: Elite Certified

Product Description

DVB-RCS (Digital Video Broadcasting - Interaction channel for satellite distribution systems) is an established ETSI standard for digital data transmission via satellites. It uses a 8-state double-binary turbo code that has an excellent error correction performance. This outstanding performance of the DVB-RCS turbo codes makes it the ideal candidate for further applications where high spectral efficiency is key for lowering costs.

Applications

  • Satellite communication (Interactive Services, Professional Services, TDMA)
  • Applications with highest demands on forward error correction
  • Applications with the need for a wide range of code rates (1/3 and above) and block lengths

  • Key Features and Benefits

    • Compliant with ETSI 301 790 V1.4.1 (2005-09) (DVB-RCS)
    • Support for all turbo code block lengths (12 to 216 bytes) and code rates (1/3 to 6/7) as defined by the standard
    • Support for QPSK and 8-PSK interfacing
    • Design-time configuration of throughput, input bit widths, and maximum block length for optimal resource utilization.
    • Low-power and low-complexity design.
    • Burst-to-burst on-the-fly configuration.
    • Configurable interleaver parameters allow for support.
