10 10 TR V1.4.1 ( ) Foreword This Technical Report (TR) has been produced by Joint Technical Committee (JTC) roadcast of the European roadcasting Union (EU), Comité Européen de Normalisation ELECtrotechnique (CENELEC) and the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (). NOTE: The EU/ JTC roadcast was established in 1990 to co-ordinate the drafting of standards in the specific field of broadcasting and related fields. Since 1995 the JTC roadcast became a tripartite body by including in the Memorandum of Understanding also CENELEC, which is responsible for the standardization of radio and television receivers. The EU is a professional association of broadcasting organizations whose work includes the co-ordination of its members' activities in the technical, legal, programme-making and programme-exchange domains. The EU has active members in about 60 countries in the European broadcasting area; its headquarters is in Geneva. European roadcasting Union CH-1218 GRND SCONNEX (Geneva) Switzerland Tel: Fax: Founded in September 1993, the DV Project is a market-led consortium of public and private sector organizations in the television industry. Its aim is to establish the framework for the introduction of MPEG-2 based digital television services. Now comprising over 200 organizations from more than 25 countries around the world, DV fosters market-led systems, which meet the real needs, and economic circumstances, of the consumer electronics and the broadcast industry. Introduction The present document gives guidelines for the implementation of Digital Video roadcasting (DV) interaction channel for Satellite Distribution System (also known as DV-RCS: DV Return Channel via Satellite). The present document describes the DV-RCS specification for geostationary satellite interactive system [i.2]. It draws attention to the technical questions that need to be answered in setting up a DV-RCS network and offers some guidance in finding answers to them. Outline of the present document The present document provides some examples of implementation details related either with the physical (e.g. guard times, preambles, code performance, typical frames, link budget) or the medium access control (e.g. use of capacity request categories) layers. The present document also provides extensive details about Return Channel Satellite Terminal (RCST) implementation guidelines. For example: The interface between the RCST indoor unit (IDU) and outdoor unit (ODU) is described. The optional Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Management Information ase (MI) is provided. The interaction with SMTV, LN and IHDN are considered. Examples of incorporation of DV-RCS into an existing digital television platform as well as typical DV-RCS networks are also addressed. The present document also covers the extension to systems based on regenerative satellites (see [i.32]), as defined in [i.2]. The revision accomplished in 2004 integrates the DV-S2 standard for forward link transmission.

11 11 TR V1.4.1 ( ) The revision accomplished in 2008 distinguishes these guidelines from the guidelines for the implementation of the optional mobile use enhancements specified in [i.2], as given in [i.6], and updates the implementation guidelines for fixed use as well.

12 12 TR V1.4.1 ( ) 1 Scope The present document should be read in conjunction with the normative document [i.2] in order to assist network operators, systems integrators, and equipment manufacturers in the realization of satellite based interactive services. The present document should be interpreted as recommendations or good practices but not as mandatory requirements. It is anticipated however that future procurement documents may reference elements of the present document as part of their system specification. The present document is applicable to satellite systems as defined in [i.2]. In such a system the RCSTs receive a Forward Link signal based on the DV-S [i.1] or DV-S2 [i.38] specifications. In a non-regenerative system, the Return Link signal transmitted from the RCST is received by one or more Gateways, which also interact with the NCC. In regenerative systems as well as in transparent mesh systems, it can be possible to also have direct RCST-to-RCST communications. The system as defined in [i.2] may be used in all frequency bands allocated to FSS or SS services, and the first expected implementations are in the bands listed in annex E. Information concerning the most relevant international regulations and recommendations (ITU,, DV, etc.) which could be applicable to the DV-RCS terminals is included in clause 2. The present document, as well as the normative document [i.2], cover two RCST profiles: Type, which is able to support IP services only. This type of terminal supports two types of data encapsulation, based on TM or MPEG2. Type, which is able to operate as RCST Type and also to support native TM protocols by encapsulating TM cells within an MPEG2 Transport Stream on the forward link. The present document should not be used to justify the fulfilment of the essential requirements under article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive [i.33]. Requirements for ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC) under article 3.1b of the R&TTE Directive [i.33] are given in EN [i.30] or EN [i.31]. Harmful interference is limited by requiring a minimum set of Control and Monitoring Functions (CMF) as well as specifying limits for on-axis radiation, off-axis spurious radiation, carrier suppression, off-axis EIRP emission density and pointing accuracy. These specifications are in general depending on the transmit frequency. For system transmitting at Ku band frequencies EN [i.9] applies. Limits for Ka band systems are given in EN [i.8]. Within the constraints of the above clause, there are a number of parameters that need to be declared by manufacturers and network operators for interoperability, including: ll parameters defined in the CSC burst. Frequency plan, including frequency bands, of forward and return links. Range of symbol rate on forward and return link. Transmit and receive RF characteristics of the RCST, including at least: EIRP capability, frequency hopping capability, uplink power control capability, isolation between Tx and Rx and G/T. 2 References References are either specific (identified by date of publication and/or edition number or version number) or non-specific.

In practice not all these interconnections will be implemented. lso, some functional blocks may be co-located. This clause describes therefore the network architectures that are more likely to be implemented for the service provision. 4.1 rchitecture with co-located NCC, Gateway and Feeder The simplest architecture is an interactive satellite network with a single Traffic Gateway and a single Feeder co-located in an Earth Station (see figure 4.1). The Network Control Centre is possibly also collocated. Interactive Network dapter return NCC Gateway Feeder controls User data Terminal roadcast Network dapter Figure 4.1: rchitecture with a single gateway and feeder (collocated) This Earth Station has both an Interactive Network dapter and a roadcast Network dapter. It generates the forward link signal, including user data and the control and timing signals needed for the operation of the Satellite Interactive Network. It receives the RCST return signals, provides interactive services and/or connections to external service providers and networks and it provides monitoring, accounting and billing functions.
