Indosiar 400m tower and 320 kw UHF TV system, 3 analogue and 2 DVB-T 2008 – Tower, Antenna & Combiner for DVB-T in Brunei 2012 – Multiple DVB-T Antennas / Combiner mask filters for VTV, Vietnam 2012 – Digital systems Antennas and install, ABS/CBN Philippines 2012 – DVB System, Brunei 2013 – DVB-T2 – Antenna & Combiner System, Singapore. 2014 - Ch. 3 CPOL Antenna, New York City Times Square, 1st new TV station in 20+ years. 2014/15/16 - DVB-T2 – Repeater / Gap Filler Antennas (Roof Top), Singapore 2015 - Televisa Nationwide expansion of Digital TV Network 2015 - TV Azteca 48 broadband UHF Super Turnstiles and 5 kw mask filters 2016 - Epol upgrade to main ABC5 antenna covering Manila – in progress Considerations for Digital Digital application Where is your Audience Coverage Planning, for that audience Standard, Modulation Parameters. Service Reliability for Mobile/Indoor Reception Performance Target Implementation considerations Timescales / Existing services Digital Application Fixed Reception (traditional Analogue)  Only to serve house holds roof top antenna Portable, Outdoor  Hand held devices (mobile reception) Portable, Indoor  Both Home and hand held devices (mobile) Difference applications means different minimum recommended RF levels Digital standards & where DVB-T/T2: Erope, Middle East, Africa & Asia (except Korea, China, Japan & Philippines) a few Latin American countries ATSC->3.0: (USA, Canada, Mexico & South Korea) DTMB: GB20600-2006 (GB stands for guo biao, “national standard” in Chinese) ISDB-T: Japan, Philippines SBTVD-T (aka ISDB-TB): most Latin American countries All OFDM signal modulation DVB-T Planning Field Strength Requirements DVB-T Planning Field Strength Requirements ~20dB+ because 0 gain RX & reduction of height ~10dB++ because building loss Modulation Parameters Payload capacity / data bandwidth Constellation Guard Interval Size of Coverage Area (SFN) Error correction FTT / No carriers Robustness of decoding signal Doppler performance (max handset speed) The Success of Mobile Reception Service Reliability is Key Reliability of Service - Polarization Experiment Results – Heavy Scatter, Depolarized Environment Circular Good Must have orthogonal waves Elliptical better Overall range and reliability Performance Target, Realistic Guaranteed results? Consultants Extensive Plan Criteria Set Limited budget Copy Analogue, but digital Somewhere in between? Implementation considerations Existing Transmission Structure Does it have structural capacity? Does it have space, and suitable space? Existing Broadcast system Does it have additional power rating? Does it have bandwidth? Is it digital ready? Is it possible to combine? Planning - Digital transition timescales Timescales from 1st digital transmission to analogue switch off (digital switch on) is typically 10-15 years. Analogue & Digital both required during this time! Dual cast Separate or Combined systems? When will you need to cover indoor/mobile? Digital to Analogue transition - Stages  Analogue (Pre-Digital), All Revenue from this! No Plans for Digital  Planning for Digital  Initial Digital  Basic Digital “Introduction”, just on air  Main Coverage Analogue, remains critical importance  Medium Term  Assess market feedback and adoption rate.  Improve or adapt digital signal, change of parameters or even standard  Analogue still critical, some disruption allowed/acceptable   End Game (for Analogue) Change digital to be prime signal, best transmission locations  Analogue still required until switch off day   After End Game Digital Restacking / Repacking / Refarming  Further potential changes due to loss of total Broadcast bandwidth  This could happen more than once! Even a possible band change.  Products for Digital Antennas  Panels HPOL/VPOL/EPOL/CPOL  Slots  Broadband Slots  Super Turnstyle  Dipole arrays - VPOL Combiners and Switching  Mask Filtering – Reflective and Constant Impedance  Combining  Patch Panels –Rigid transmission line & components  Integrated solutions Antenna options for adding Digital Single channel – limited bandwidth Simpler / quicker initial option Broadband – Multiplexing Channels More Complex Gap Filling UHF Panel Antenna Broadband Low VSWR over many channels UHF 470-890 MHz Modular Design Omni or custom azimuth patterns Fiberglas Radome Protection JUHD UHF panel systems Top Mount high power, high Gain Broadband array Indosiar 320kw 400m Omni Directional RCTI 240kw 300m 32 Lambda TPI Global 280kw 300m UHF Panel antennas - Advantages Broadband 470 – 860 MHz Various power levels from low to high. Azimuth Patterns (HRP) – standard and custom Elevation Patterns (VRP) – Beam tilt and null levels can vary Corporate or parallel fed Many Panels – not a single source of failure UHF Panel antennas - Disadvantages High weight and wind loading Corporate feed – many cables, splitters, dividers Complex installations Mixed polarisation increase Complexity further Many Panels / components Mounting Advance planning engineering JUHD Standard Azimuth Patterns Omni Wide Cardioid Peanut Narrow Cardioid Single Lobe Wrap Around Solutions Craigkelly – Scotland Main digital antenna (Band 4& 5): Comprises 8-Tier of 4 UHF panels which provides omni directional pattern.
