Implementing next generation video broadcast standards with Ensigma RPUsWith Imagination BlogJul. 12, 2016 |
When we originally introduced the Ensigma Series4 RPU family, we mainly focused on the support for different connectivity standards such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. However, there were also several mentions of the Ensigma’s capability to support broadcast TV and radio standards. In this two part article, I would like to reveal some details about a next generation broadcast TV standard called DVB-S2X and how we plan to support it using our Ensigma RPU architecture. In a follow-up post, I will then delve into how we support radio broadcast standards (DAB and HD Radio)
The figure below shows the evolution of the digital and mobile TV broadcast standards as well as the applications that have been driving these standards. The DVB-S2X is the latest of the video broadcast standards currently promoted by DVB Project.
