Abstract:
This paper analyzes the performance of a new DVB-S2 system. The standard outer Bose-Chaudhuri-Hoquenghem encoder is substituted with a Reed-Solomon (204, 188) encoder in order to analyze and possibly improve the system performances. Simulation for analyzing the communication quality is designed via Matlab and Simulink. The results are compared with results from the existing DVB-S2 model. The new model with the Reed-Solomon outer encoder shows better performances: when noise reaches a level where the existing model gains no quasi-error free performance, the new DVB-S2 model shows a quasi-error-free communication.
