In this paper, we proposed high speed LDPC decoding algorithm based on DVB-S2 standard for applying marine communications in order to multimedia transmission. For implementing the high speed LDPC decoder, HSS algorithm which reduce the iteration numbers without performance degradation is applied. In HSS algorithm, check node update units are update at the same time of bit node update. HSS can be accelerated to the decoding speed because it does not need to separate calculation of the bit nodes, However, check node calculation blocks need many clocks because of just one memory is used. Therefore, this paper proposed partial memory structure in order to reduced the delay and high speed decoder is possible. The results of the simulation, when the max number of iteration set to 30 times, decoding throughput of HSS algorithm is 326 Mbit/s and decoding speed of proposed algorithm is 2.29 Gbit/s. So, decoding speed of proposed algorithm more than 7 times could be obtained compared to the HSS algorithm.

In this paper, we propose a Service-adaptive Tactical Data Transmission Protocol (STTS) based on Satellite Communications with narrow bandwidth. STTS is designed to provide additional field for scalability and scheduler for reliability of transport stream protocol based on digital broadcasting standard, DVB-S and DVB-S2. It is also verified the effects of lost data packets with narrow bandwidth through the simulator by traffic model and re-transmission of critical data, and checked the design considerations based on STTS system.

This paper proposes a novel LDPC code decoder architecture to improve throughput for DVB-S2, a second generation standard of ETSI for satellite broad-band applications. The proposed architecture clusters 360 bitnodes and checknodes into groups utilizing the property of IRA-LDPC code. Functional modules which perform calculations for bitnode groups and checknode groups have local memories and store the messages from the other type of functional modules connected by edges at their local memories. The proposed architecture can avoid memory conflicts by accessing stored messages sequentially, hence, increases throughput in the proposed DVB-S2 LDPC code decoder architecture. The proposed architecture was synthesized using the TSMC 90nm technology. Synthesis results show that throughput of the proposed architecture is improved by 104% and 478%, respectively, when compared with those of the architectures proposed by F. Kienle and J. Dielissen.

In this paper, high throughput method is studied to provide floating objects with broadband service as ship by using satellite. In recent, satellite broadcastings standard is based on DVB-S3 for communication service using wireless device on navigation communication by satellite. LDPC codes are iterative coding algorithm proposed in DVB-S3. In this paper, FTN technique is applied to LDPC codes with 8-PSK modulation and then present the method to alleviate performance degradation due to FTN through BICM-ID. BICM-ID is the method to improve performance by calculating a new LLR from hard-decision value of decoder output. DVB-S2 system with 8-PSK modulation and FTN technique based on iterative decoding had a better performance than DVB-S2 with 8-PSK modulation and FTN technique over Gaussian channels.

The study discussed the link analysis for the Ka band satellite broadcasting service in Korea with respect to the transmission schemes based on the DVB-S2 standard. To analyze the effect of the rain fading to the link budget, we estimated the rain attenuation from the measured rainfall intensity in Korea. We analyzed the link budget for the Ka band transponders of Koreasat-3, and DirecTV BSS-99W, and showed the possible link availability with the DVB-S2 transmission schemes for each transponder. Based on the link analysis of the available satellites with the Ka band transponders, we suggested the required EIRP for the satellite which will be employed for the Ka band satellite broadcasting service in Korea.

The sophistication and diversification of mission equipment for surveillance and reconnaissance is leading to a demand for large-capacity public data links. Overseas, a T4 class(274Mbps) common data link was applied to the Global hwak, a high-altitude unmanned aerial vehicle, and various research and development are being conducted in Korea. In this paper, we propose a structure in which pilot is additionally applied to improve SNR performance while minimizing data transmission rate loss in the DVB-S2 frame structure, which is a european satellite broadcasting standard, for high-capacity transmission of T4 class or higher in the common data link. For the performance evaluation of the proposed structure, the performance of the DVB-S2 was compared and analyzed by simulating the UAV data link channel environment. As a result of simulation, 0.15% of transmission rate loss occurred at T4 class transmission rate compared to DVB-S2 in the proposed structure, but improved SNR reception performance of 0.2~0.3dB was confirmed in the UAV channel environment.

In this paper, we designed FFT for European DTV and implemented system with Stratix EP1S25F672C6 FPGA At the implemented FFT, we used SIC architecture. SIC architecture is composed of algorithm-specific processing element, RAM memory, registers, and a central or distributed control unit. Designed FFT was acceptable either 2K or 8K point FFT processing, and is selectable guard interval such as 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32. Consequently, it was suitable for the standard of DVB-T(Digital Terrestrial Video Transmission System) specification. It resulted in 12% of total logic gate and 53% of total memory bit in Stratix device.

In this paper, we first review LDPC codes in general and a belief propagation algorithm that works in logarithm domain. LDPC codes, which is chosen for second generation digital video broadcasting standard, are required a large number of computation due to large size of coded block and iteration. Therefore, we presented two kinds of low computational algorithm for LDPC codes. First, sequential decoding with partial group is proposed. It has same H/W complexity, and fewer number of iteration's are required at same performance in comparison with conventional decoder algerian. Secondly, early detection method for reducing the computational complexity is proposed. Using a confidence criterion, some bit nodes and check node edges are detected early on during decoding. Through the simulation, we knew that the iteration number are reduced by half using subset algorithm and computational complexity of early detected method is about $50\%$ offs in case of check node update, $99\%$ offs in case of check node update compared to conventional scheme.

This paper compares and analyzes and analyzes the transmission performance of the OpenCable system and the DBD-C system which are adopted as the digital CATV transmission standard in U.S.A. and Europe respectively through computer simulation under the same channel environment. We considered the channel environment including the random noise and the CTB (Composite Tripple Beats) noise as channel impairments in order to compare the two standard fairly. Additionally, we analyzed the transmission performance of the OpenCable system for the various interleaving depths. We implemented each transmission system by software, and we analyzed BER values with respect to the C/N in order to compare their transmission performance. As a result of the computer simulation, to get the BER of ${10}^{-6}$ the OpenCable system requires 1.2 dB kiwer C/N than the DVB-C system in the 64-QAM mode, and the two system require similar C/N in the 256-QAM mode.
