h1. DVB-S2 standard
Digital Video Broadcasting – Satellite 2nd Generation (DVB-S2) is a broadcast standard defined by ETSI (European Telecommunications Standard Institute) http://www.etsi.org/ in ETSI EN 302 307 [1] for satellite TV. It includes a powerful FEC system on LDPC (Low Density Parity Check) codes concatenated with BCH (Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem) codes, allowing Quasi-Error-Free operations very close to the Shannon Limit. It uses a wide range of code rates, QPSK, 8PSK 16APSK, 32APSK constellations and shape filtering with roll-off factors 0.35, 0.25 and 0.2. Of course the purpose of this project was not to implement the ETSI EN 302 307 but a simplified version in order to make performance calculations and observations over the USRPs.
DVB-S2 standard was conceived in 2003, in order to replace the DVB-S standard [http://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_en/300400_300499/300421/01.01.02_60/en_300421v010102p.pdf] introduced in 1995. The need for broadcast services in HDTV and 3DTV drove the evolution of the DVB-S standard. In early 2014, the DVB Project [https://www.dvb.org/] standardized the DVB-S2X standard [http://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_en/302300_302399/30230701/01.04.01_20/en_30230701v010401a.pdf and http://www.etsi.org/deliver/etsi_en/302300_302399/30230701/01.04.01_20/en_30230701v010401a.pdf] with higher order modulations and smaller roll-off factors, improved spectral efficiency. Broadcast Satellite Service (BSS) uses specific frequency bands for each ITU Region in tha K_u band.
