Performance Analysis of SER in DVB-H by using Reed-Solomon Code with Erasure and Non Erasure Technique

Abstract

Digital video broadcasting-handheld (DVB-H) is based on the earlier standard DVB-T, which is used for terrestrial TV broadcasting. This new standard brings features that make it possible to receive digital video broadcast of DVD quality video and sound in handheld devices, it also offers reliable high data rate reception for mobile & battery powered devices, The paper discusses and compares the key technology elements 4 K and 2 K modes, in-depth interleavers, time slicing and multi protocol encapsulation-forward error correction (MPE-FEC). In addition, extensive range of SER performance results on software based simulations is provided. The result suggest that by using an erasure decoding method with the Ree -Solomon code & cyclic redundancy check error detection as the link layer forward error correction, the strength of the signal is much higher while error detection & correction becomes doubles.
