4 All in one integrated encoding and multiplexing solution Support of video signals up to ultra high definition (UHD) The R&S AVHE100 supports the UHD format, which at pixel delivers four times more pixels than an HD signal at pixel. The input signals are 4 3G-SDI signals, each containing one quadrant with a FullHD signal ( pixel) in progressive scan format. This means that the R&S AVHE100 can accept and process uncompressed video data at approx. 12 Gbit/s per UHD service. The R&S AVHE100 automatically combines the signals for the individual quadrants into a UHD picture and then encodes them. Multi-codec support, including the new HEVC standard The R&S AVHE100 is a software-based encoding and multiplexing solution, making it possible to adapt to market demands and customer needs quickly and flexibly. The R&S AVHE100 can encode all received video signals with the new high efficiency video codec (HEVC) to achieve the best video quality at the lowest data rate. HEVC is specifically used with ultra high definition (UHD) transmissions, as it accomplishes reduction of video data in the most efficient way. It is also finding increasing use with high definition (HD) transmissions in terrestrial networks (DVB-T2). Pixel resolution of current and coming video formats.

6 GUI of R&S AVHE100 headend management system with automation function. Built-in automation capability The R&S AVHE100 comes with an integrated headend management system (HMS). Using the automation function, the HMS can automatically perform reconfigurations. These can be launched at specific times by means of a scheduler or by an external trigger (e.g. SNMP, GPI). The intuitive, web-based GUI with its drag & drop function makes it easy to modify reconfiguration sequences. This allows easy regionalization of the generated multiplex without external management solutions. In addition, the R&S AVHE100 offers numerous display options (e.g. list/ month/week view), where the start time for a selected event can be changed interactively. Events can also be completely cancelled. Color space defined by Rec y D x 6 AVHE100_UHD_bro_ _v0100.indd :04:35

7 Rec. 601/709 (left) vs. Rec (right) Support of high dynamic range (HDR) technique The R&S AVHE100 permits the transmission of HDR-specific metadata in a transport stream. This makes it possible to encode and transmit an SDI signal containing an HDR signal. An HDR-ready device displays images with a larger color space and an increased dynamic range of luminosity. Viewers see even more details, especially in bright or dark picture areas. The resulting picture is even more true to life and spectacular.

8 -based, powerful system solution Hybrid redundancy solution The R&S AVHE100 offers all essential functions of an encoding and multiplexing solution. On the R&S AVS100 audio/video processing platform, multiple services are decoded and encoded in parallel, multiplexed, and adapted to the broadcast medium by means of transmission specific network adapters. The hybrid redundancy concept makes it possible to implement an optimal N+1 device redundancy and thus an N+M encoder redundancy, with a 1+1 multiplexer redundancy at the same time. In combination with the R&S CrossFlow technology, this enables seamless main/alternate device switchover, i.e. switchover without any interruption of the generated transport stream. N+1 device redundancy additionally offers the advantage that one of the servers can be configured in 1+1 hot standby. As a result, the (high-priority) services encoded on that server also run in 1+1 hot standby and continue to be transmitted without interruption when switchover to the other server is made.

9 Statistical multiplex function R&S AVS100 audio/video processing platform The optional statistical multiplex (StatMux) function analyzes the video complexity of the A/V streams to be multiplexed and, based on the results, allocates appropriate bit rates to the encoders in a statistical multiplex pool. This efficient utilization of data rates makes it possible to achieve higher picture quality for the transmitted programs or to transmit more programs at a time (enhanced efficiency). Programs can be prioritized within a pool. Higher-priority programs are allocated higher data rates to achieve higher quality for complex video sequences. The R&S AVHE100 also supports a mixture of different codecs (MPEG-2, MPEG-4/H.264, HEVC) and formats (SD, HD). The R&S AVS100 audio/video processing platform is the core component of the R&S AVHE100 encoding and multiplexing solution. Its integrated headend management system allows users to centrally configure, control and monitor the R&S AVHE100. Core functions of the R&S AVS100 include: Decoding of MPEG-4/H.264 and MPEG-2 video signals in SD and HD format Encoding in line with HEVC, MPEG-4/H.264 and MPEG-2 in SD, HD and UHD format Statistical multiplexing of encoded video streams (SD, HD; MPEG-2, MPEG-4/H.264, HEVC) Multiplexing of DVB transport streams Insertion of signaling information (program specific information (PSI)) DVB-S, DVB-S2, DVB-T, DVB-T2 signaling generation (service information (SI)) DVB-T SFN adapter DVB-T2 gateway with single or multiple physical layer pipes (SPLP/MPLP) Headend management system (HMS) Full functionality and flexibility, with only a few hardware components The R&S AVHE100 is a state-of-the-art encoding and multi plexing solution based on a high-quality IT processing platform that can be extended with an audio/video gateway from Rohde & Schwarz. All R&S AVHE100 functions are software-based, allowing quick and easy adaptation to modifications or expansions of the coding or transmission standards. In its UHD version, the R&S AVHE100 comprises only two R&S AVS100 audio/video processing platforms. The R&S AVS100 base unit provides all core functions, which are enabled via option keys. Easy installation and upgrades, low operating cost The signal flow for the various input signals such as ASI, SDI, AES or the 10 MHz reference clock is fully -based throughout the R&S AVHE100 system. The R&S AVHE100 uses robust standard components and Ethernet cabling, which simplifies installation and maintenance. Since the core functions of the R&S AVHE100 are software-based, system upgrades and modifications can in many cases be implemented by acquiring additional option keys without any hardware extensions. For example, DVB-T can be upgraded to DVB-T2 with a simple option key. The integration of extensive functionality into a powerful IT processing platform also means lower power consumption. This results in lower dissipated heat, which further reduces operating costs, such as for air-conditioning. With its high level of integration, the R&S AVHE100 saves valuable space in the equipment room, cutting down on infrastructure costs.

10 Innovative R&S CrossFlow technology Built-in frame synchronizer and format converter The R&S AVHE100 includes a software-based frame synchronizer that automatically matches up the video signals, allowing a clean switchover at the frame level. Using the R&S CrossFlow technology, the signals are distributed to the various R&S AVS100 devices fully over. This eliminates the need for external frame synchronizers and SDI switchers required in conventional systems, substantially reducing system complexity and cost. Seamless input signal switching The R&S AVHE100 allows users to convert input signal formats to configurable target formats. Video signals can be converted from interlaced to progressive format (de-interlacing, e.g. from 1080i to 1080p), and the picture resolution can be changed (scaling, e.g. from 720p to 1080p). External format converters which introduce additional errors during signal feed, substantially add to costs and represent a single point of failure are eliminated. On the input side, the R&S CrossFlow technology allows the input signals from the main system to be used in the alternate system and vice versa. Signals are routed between the main and the alternate system via, making any external components such as SDI switchers or management systems unnecessary. The R&S AVHE100 automatically detects faulty input signals and switches seamlessly to the alternate signal. As a result, no switching operation becomes necessary in the downstream processing chain, and the transmit signal continues undisturbed. Unlike traditional redundancy concepts, the R&S AVHE100 switches to the input signal alternate system automatically. This reduces system complexity and significantly decreases integration effort during commissioning.

11 Seamless output signal switching Automated, seamless software updating On the output side, the R&S CrossFlow technology permits seamless switching between the main and the alternate system. The seamless switching functionality implemented in the R&S AVHE100 also provides synchronization of the main and the alternate path. In conventional systems, this functionality is provided by an external device, increasing system complexity and requiring integration into a higher-level management system. The use of the R&S CrossFlow technology, on the other hand, ensures that the main and alternate transport streams applied to the modulator via (SMPTE /-2) or ASI are always bit and time synchronous, so that the modulator can switch between these signals seamlessly without interrupting transmission. This is a vital prerequisite especially for terrestrial transmitter systems configured as single-frequency networks (SFN) because, if the modulation for these transmitters is not time synchronous, the signal will be disrupted and resynchronizing all transmitters will cause an outage of several minutes. The R&S AVHE100 has an integrated update function that makes it possible to perform automated, incremental software updates on all devices in the system without interrupting transmission. In an N+1 system, software updates installed on the various devices (including encoders, multiplexers, network adapters) are transferred to the alternate devices in an intelligent, step-by-step process during live transmission. The entire process is centrally controlled and monitored via the HMS. The R&S CrossFlow technology and the fully -based signal routing ensure that no service is interrupted and that the transport streams are generated seamlessly. The overall process can be performed in several substeps; the operator retains complete control of the update.
