Performance evaluation of DVB-T2 propagation for fixed reception

The performance of propagation analysis of DVB-T2 (Digital Video Broadcasting - Second Generation Terrestrial) is very significant for digital television broadcasting. That will analyze the effectiveness of the setting parameters that use for suitable of broadcasting. This paper provides the performance evaluation of DVB-T2 for fixed reception by the received signal measurement. The field measurements were taken in Bangkok of Thailand, along 20 locations. The receiver used to analyze the DVB-T2 signal providing several quality measurements (Power, C/N, MER, BER, constellation diagram, etc.).The results of the study could be useful for the improvement of DVB-T2 broadcast such as transmitter adjustment and gap filler transmitter installation to optimize the efficiency of digital television broadcasting.
