Digital TV property parameters
|

******************************
|
||
|
|
||
|
There are several different Digital TV parameters that can be used by
|
||
|
:ref:`FE_SET_PROPERTY and FE_GET_PROPERTY ioctls<FE_GET_PROPERTY>`.
|
||
|
This section describes each of them. Please notice, however, that only
|
||
|
a subset of them are needed to setup a frontend.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. _DTV-UNDEFINED:
|
||
|
|
||
|
DTV_UNDEFINED
|
||
|
=============
|
||
|
|
||
|
Used internally. A GET/SET operation for it won't change or return
|
||
|
anything.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. _DTV-TUNE:
|
||
|
|
||
|
DTV_TUNE
|
||
|
========
|
||
|
|
||
|
Interpret the cache of data, build either a traditional frontend
|
||
|
tunerequest so we can pass validation in the ``FE_SET_FRONTEND`` ioctl.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. _DTV-CLEAR:
|
||
|
|
||
|
DTV_CLEAR
|
||
|
=========
|
||
|
|
||
|
Reset a cache of data specific to the frontend here. This does not
|
||
|
effect hardware.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. _DTV-FREQUENCY:
|
||
|
|
||
|
DTV_FREQUENCY
|
||
|
=============
|
||
|
|
||
|
Frequency of the digital TV transponder/channel.
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. note::
|
||
|
|
||
|
#. For satellite delivery systems, the frequency is in kHz.
|
||
|
|
||
|
#. For cable and terrestrial delivery systems, the frequency is in
|
||
|
Hz.
|
||
|
|
||
|
#. On most delivery systems, the frequency is the center frequency
|
||
|
of the transponder/channel. The exception is for ISDB-T, where
|
||
|
the main carrier has a 1/7 offset from the center.
|
||
|
|
||
|
#. For ISDB-T, the channels are usually transmitted with an offset of
|
||
|
about 143kHz. E.g. a valid frequency could be 474,143 kHz. The
|
||
|
stepping is bound to the bandwidth of the channel which is
|
||
|
typically 6MHz.
|
||
|
|
||
|
#. In ISDB-Tsb, the channel consists of only one or three segments the
|
||
|
frequency step is 429kHz, 3*429 respectively.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. _DTV-MODULATION:
|
||
|
|
||
|
DTV_MODULATION
|
||
|
==============
|
||
|
|
||
|
Specifies the frontend modulation type for delivery systems that
|
||
|
supports more multiple modulations.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The modulation can be one of the types defined by enum :c:type:`fe_modulation`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Most of the digital TV standards offers more than one possible
|
||
|
modulation type.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The table below presents a summary of the types of modulation types
|
||
|
supported by each delivery system, as currently defined by specs.
|
||
|
|
||
|
======================= =======================================================
|
||
|
Standard Modulation types
|
||
|
======================= =======================================================
|
||
|
ATSC (version 1) 8-VSB and 16-VSB.
|
||
|
DMTB 4-QAM, 16-QAM, 32-QAM, 64-QAM and 4-QAM-NR.
|
||
|

||
|
DVB-S No need to set. It supports only QPSK.
|
||
|
DVB-S2 QPSK, 8-PSK, 16-APSK and 32-APSK.
|
||
|
ISDB-T QPSK, DQPSK, 16-QAM and 64-QAM.
|
||
|
ISDB-S 8-PSK, QPSK and BPSK.
|
||
|
======================= =======================================================
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. note::
|
||
|
|
||
|
Please notice that some of the above modulation types may not be
|
||
|
defined currently at the Kernel. The reason is simple: no driver
|
||
|
needed such definition yet.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. _DTV-BANDWIDTH-HZ:
|
||
|
|
||
|
DTV_BANDWIDTH_HZ
|
||
|
================
|
||
|
|
||
|
Bandwidth for the channel, in HZ.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Should be set only for terrestrial delivery systems.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Possible values: ``1712000``, ``5000000``, ``6000000``, ``7000000``,
|
||
|
``8000000``, ``10000000``.
|
||
|
|
||
|
======================= =======================================================
|
||
|
Terrestrial Standard Possible values for bandwidth
|
||
|
======================= =======================================================
|
||
|
ATSC (version 1) No need to set. It is always 6MHz.
|
||
|
DMTB No need to set. It is always 8MHz.
|
||
|
DVB-T 6MHz, 7MHz and 8MHz.
|
||
|
DVB-T2 1.172 MHz, 5MHz, 6MHz, 7MHz, 8MHz and 10MHz
|
||
|
ISDB-T 5MHz, 6MHz, 7MHz and 8MHz, although most places
|
||
|
use 6MHz.
|
||
|
======================= =======================================================
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. note::
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
#. For ISDB-Tsb, the bandwidth can vary depending on the number of
|
||
|
connected segments.
|
||
|
|
||
|
It can be easily derived from other parameters
|
||
|
(DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_IDX, DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_COUNT).
|
||
|
|
||
|
#. On Satellite and Cable delivery systems, the bandwidth depends on
|
||
|
the symbol rate. So, the Kernel will silently ignore any setting
|
||
|
:ref:`DTV-BANDWIDTH-HZ`. I will however fill it back with a
|
||
|
bandwidth estimation.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Such bandwidth estimation takes into account the symbol rate set with
|
||
|
:ref:`DTV-SYMBOL-RATE`, and the rolloff factor, with is fixed for
|
||
|
DVB-C and DVB-S.
|
||
|
|
||
|
For DVB-S2, the rolloff should also be set via :ref:`DTV-ROLLOFF`.

DTV_ISDBT_PARTIAL_RECEPTION
|
||
|
===========================
|
||
|
|
||
|
Used only on ISDB.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If ``DTV_ISDBT_SOUND_BROADCASTING`` is '0' this bit-field represents
|
||
|
whether the channel is in partial reception mode or not.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If '1' ``DTV_ISDBT_LAYERA_*`` values are assigned to the center segment
|
||
|
and ``DTV_ISDBT_LAYERA_SEGMENT_COUNT`` has to be '1'.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If in addition ``DTV_ISDBT_SOUND_BROADCASTING`` is '1'
|
||
|
``DTV_ISDBT_PARTIAL_RECEPTION`` represents whether this ISDB-Tsb channel
|
||
|
is consisting of one segment and layer or three segments and two layers.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Possible values: 0, 1, -1 (AUTO)
|

.. _DTV-ISDBT-SOUND-BROADCASTING:
|
||
|
|
||
|
DTV_ISDBT_SOUND_BROADCASTING
|
||
|
============================
|
||
|
|
||
|
Used only on ISDB.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This field represents whether the other DTV_ISDBT_*-parameters are
|
||
|
referring to an ISDB-T and an ISDB-Tsb channel. (See also
|
||
|
``DTV_ISDBT_PARTIAL_RECEPTION``).
|

|
|
||
|
Possible values: 0, 1, -1 (AUTO)

.. _DTV-ISDBT-SB-SUBCHANNEL-ID:
|
||
|
|
||
|
DTV_ISDBT_SB_SUBCHANNEL_ID
|
||
|
==========================
|
||
|
|
||
|
Used only on ISDB.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This field only applies if ``DTV_ISDBT_SOUND_BROADCASTING`` is '1'.
|
||
|
|
||
|
(Note of the author: This might not be the correct description of the
|
||
|
``SUBCHANNEL-ID`` in all details, but it is my understanding of the
|
||
|
technical background needed to program a device)
|
||
|
|
||
|
An ISDB-Tsb channel (1 or 3 segments) can be broadcasted alone or in a
|
||
|
set of connected ISDB-Tsb channels. In this set of channels every
|
||
|
channel can be received independently. The number of connected ISDB-Tsb
|
||
|
segment can vary, e.g. depending on the frequency spectrum bandwidth
|
||
|
available.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Example: Assume 8 ISDB-Tsb connected segments are broadcasted. The
|
||
|
broadcaster has several possibilities to put those channels in the air:
|
||
|
Assuming a normal 13-segment ISDB-T spectrum he can align the 8 segments
|
||
|
from position 1-8 to 5-13 or anything in between.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The underlying layer of segments are subchannels: each segment is
|
||
|
consisting of several subchannels with a predefined IDs. A sub-channel
|
||
|
is used to help the demodulator to synchronize on the channel.
|
||
|
|
||
|
An ISDB-T channel is always centered over all sub-channels. As for the
|
||
|
example above, in ISDB-Tsb it is no longer as simple as that.
|
||
|
|
||
|
``The DTV_ISDBT_SB_SUBCHANNEL_ID`` parameter is used to give the
|
||
|
sub-channel ID of the segment to be demodulated.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Possible values: 0 .. 41, -1 (AUTO)
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. _DTV-ISDBT-SB-SEGMENT-IDX:
|
||

|
||
|
DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_IDX
|
||
|
========================
|
||
|
|
||
|
Used only on ISDB.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This field only applies if ``DTV_ISDBT_SOUND_BROADCASTING`` is '1'.
|
||
|
|
||
|
``DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_IDX`` gives the index of the segment to be
|
||
|
demodulated for an ISDB-Tsb channel where several of them are
|
||
|
transmitted in the connected manner.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Possible values: 0 .. ``DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_COUNT`` - 1
|
||
|
|
||
|
Note: This value cannot be determined by an automatic channel search.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. _DTV-ISDBT-SB-SEGMENT-COUNT:
|
||
|
|
||
|
DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_COUNT
|
||
|
==========================
|
||
|
|
||
|
Used only on ISDB.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This field only applies if ``DTV_ISDBT_SOUND_BROADCASTING`` is '1'.
|
||
|
|
||
|
``DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_COUNT`` gives the total count of connected
|
||
|
ISDB-Tsb channels.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Possible values: 1 .. 13

.. _isdb-hierq-layers:
|
||
|
|
||
|
DTV-ISDBT-LAYER[A-C] parameters
|
||
|
===============================
|
||
|
|
||
|
Used only on ISDB.
|
||
|
|
||
|
ISDB-T channels can be coded hierarchically. As opposed to DVB-T in
|
||
|
ISDB-T hierarchical layers can be decoded simultaneously. For that
|
||
|
reason a ISDB-T demodulator has 3 Viterbi and 3 Reed-Solomon decoders.
|
||
|
|
||
|
ISDB-T has 3 hierarchical layers which each can use a part of the
|
||
|
available segments. The total number of segments over all layers has to
|
||
|
13 in ISDB-T.
|
||
|
|
||
|
There are 3 parameter sets, for Layers A, B and C.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
.. _DTV-ISDBT-LAYER-ENABLED:
|
||
|
|
||
|
DTV_ISDBT_LAYER_ENABLED
|
||
|
-----------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
Used only on ISDB.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Hierarchical reception in ISDB-T is achieved by enabling or disabling
|
||
|
layers in the decoding process. Setting all bits of
|
||
|
``DTV_ISDBT_LAYER_ENABLED`` to '1' forces all layers (if applicable) to
|
||
|
be demodulated. This is the default.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If the channel is in the partial reception mode
|
||
|
(``DTV_ISDBT_PARTIAL_RECEPTION`` = 1) the central segment can be decoded
|
||
|
independently of the other 12 segments. In that mode layer A has to have
|
||
|
a ``SEGMENT_COUNT`` of 1.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In ISDB-Tsb only layer A is used, it can be 1 or 3 in ISDB-Tsb according
|
||
|
to ``DTV_ISDBT_PARTIAL_RECEPTION``. ``SEGMENT_COUNT`` must be filled
|
||
|
accordingly.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Only the values of the first 3 bits are used. Other bits will be silently ignored:
|
||
|
|
||
|
``DTV_ISDBT_LAYER_ENABLED`` bit 0: layer A enabled
|
||
|
|
||
|
``DTV_ISDBT_LAYER_ENABLED`` bit 1: layer B enabled
|
||
|
|
||
|
``DTV_ISDBT_LAYER_ENABLED`` bit 2: layer C enabled
|
||
|
|

Possible values are: ``QAM_AUTO``, ``QPSK``, ``QAM_16``, ``QAM_64``, ``DQPSK``
|
||
|
|

.. note::
|
||
|
|

=============

Used on DVB-S2, DVB-T2 and ISDB-S.
|
||
|
|
||
|
DVB-S2, DVB-T2 and ISDB-S support the transmission of several streams on
|
||
|
a single transport stream. This property enables the digital TV driver to
|
||
|
handle substream filtering, when supported by the hardware. By default,
|
||
|
substream filtering is disabled.
|
||
|
|
||
|
For DVB-S2 and DVB-T2, the valid substream id range is from 0 to 255.
|
||
|
|
||
|
For ISDB, the valid substream id range is from 1 to 65535.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To disable it, you should use the special macro NO_STREAM_ID_FILTER.
|
||
|
|

|
Note: any value outside the id range also disables filtering.

DTV_ENUM_DELSYS
|
||
|
===============
|
||
|
|
||
|
A Multi standard frontend needs to advertise the delivery systems
|
||
|
provided. Applications need to enumerate the provided delivery systems,
|
||
|
before using any other operation with the frontend. Prior to it's
|
||
|
introduction, FE_GET_INFO was used to determine a frontend type. A
|
||
|
frontend which provides more than a single delivery system,
|
||
|
FE_GET_INFO doesn't help much. Applications which intends to use a
|
||
|
multistandard frontend must enumerate the delivery systems associated
|
||
|
with it, rather than trying to use FE_GET_INFO. In the case of a
|
||
|
legacy frontend, the result is just the same as with FE_GET_INFO, but
