Hughes Network Systems, LLC (HUGHES), the
world’s leading provider of broadband satellite network solutions and services,
today announced the introduction of its next-generation platform, the HN System,
which will support the most efficient implementation of the DVB-S2 industry
standard with ACM (Adaptive Coding and Modulation). The HN system is also
compliant with IPoS (IP over Satellite), the first global satellite industry
standard approved by TIA in North America, and ETSI and ITU in Europe.
Hughes’ implementation of DVB-S2 with the ACM feature, as defined in the
standard, gives Hughes customers higher system availability and greater
throughput for a given antenna size. The HN system optimizes link performance,
even in networks with geographically diverse locations and in high rain areas,
by adjusting error-correcting codes and modulation dynamically based on signal
quality feedback from HN remote terminals. The greatly improved Low Density
Parity Check (LDPC) error correcting codes, combined with the adaptability
features, make the Hughes solution the most efficient DVB-S2 platform on the
market today.
“The HN System with DVB-S2 will take satellite broadband performance to the next
level,” said Pradman Kaul, Hughes Chairman and CEO. “Along with higher speeds
and improved bandwidth, our newest system solution will also provide
significantly improved operational efficiency. This truly will unlock the full
power of DVB-S2 for system operators and for their customers.”
The new HN7000S remote terminals will support both DVB-S and DVB-S2 standards,
providing operators an easy transition to DVB-S2. The DVB-S2 NOC (Network
Operations Center) configurations include the HN NOCLX, a full-size NOC, and the
cost-effective and scalable HN NOCCX for small initial network requirements. The
NOCs support both DVB-S2 and DVB-S remote terminals.
The HN platform can be easily configured to support a wide range of data rates,
giving international service providers a great deal of flexibility in designing
their service plans. Key features of the Hughes DVB-S2 standard implementation
include QPSK and 8PSK modulations for higher throughputs; efficient LDPC coding;
and ACM for improved availability and power conservation.
Let’s take a look at the features of the
HughesNet HN7000s:
