DVB-H IP encapsulators


DVB-H IP Encapsulation

IP Encapsulation of data is definitely the key processing in DVB-H that improves reception by adding time-slicing and FEC processing in the baseband signal... but not only: value-added of DVB-H IP Encapsulator is to be as interoperable as possible with the DVB-H handsets available on the market, and to provide all administration and service platform interfacing facilities that are required by Mobile TV Operators.

MobiMUX is the world's first FPGA base DVB-H IP Encapsulator, featuring native statiscal time-slicing and Multiple-Mobile Network Operator (MNO) management.

Combined with MobiMUX DVB-H IP encapsulator operating at the central head-end, MobiEdge relies on a patent technology to deliver relevant regional content along with national content and to synchronize all the MobiEdge on the same SFN cells in order to output the same content at the same time.


Key features
