Abstract :
The new DVB-C2 specification defines the physical layer and low-layer signaling techniques for the transmission of digital broadcasting and IP streaming services via cable networks. The technology provides extremely efficient transmission capabilities combined with a high degree of operational flexibility. Both properties are instrumental for a worldwide introduction of the technology in different regional cable markets which have varying technical and business requirements. In addition, DVB-C2´s close similarity to other specifications of the DVB Family of second generation Standards (e.g. DVB-T2, DVB-S2) shortens time to market and limits development costs and efforts for the equipment manufacturing industry.
