MediaCorp selects Enensys for DVB-T2 trial network

Singapore – MediaCorp, the city-state’s primary media broadcaster, has selected equipment from Enensys Technologies for its DVB-T2 trial network to in preparation for DVB-T2 deployment.

MediaCorp will set up a trial network to showcase DVB-T2 MultiPLP capability in delivering SD, HD and 3DTV programs within a single frequency during BroadcastAsia. The trial network will subsequently be expanded for a DTV-T2 Trial commissioned by Singapore’s Media Development Authority.

The DVB-T2 Gateway, installed at the head end site, will be used to adapt the content to the DVB-T2 standard to create MultiPLP, generate T2-MI packets, and deliver content to the transmitter sites in a synchronized SFN environment.

The DVB-T2 modulator will receive the generated streams and configurations from the DVB-T2 Gateway and modulate it to a DVB-T2 signal, managing the different PLP.
