Rolloff

The Rolloff selection will determine the
shape of the output filter. The occupied

bandwidth of the modulated signal is the
symbol rate multiplied by (1+α) where

alpha (α) is the rolloff factor. By using a
lower alpha, carriers can be spaced closer

together on a given transponder or an
increased symbol rate can be realized for

a given bandwidth.

Pilot

When operating in DVB-S2, the Pilot

options are either ON or OFF. When pilots
are enabled, the total data throughput is

reduced by approximately 3.0%.

Rate

Priority

The Rate Priority control allows the

operator to designate which rate will be
kept constant. When the Symbol Rate is

entered and Rate Priority is Symbol, the
symbol rate is held constant and the

Interface rate is calculated. When the
Interface Rate is entered and Rate Priority

is Interface, the interface rate is held
constant and the symbol rate is

calculated.

Symbol

Interface

Symbol
Rate

The number of symbols transmitted per
second. The amount of data per symbol is

dependant upon the modulation type, e.g.
QPSK, 8PSK, etc.

Range can be determined by
feature key.

Interface

Rate

The Interface Rate is the bit rate at the

baseband interface.

Range can be determined by

feature key.

Carrier
Mode

The Carrier Mode control allows the
operator to select ON for normal

operations or select one of four
unmodulated carriers. The Pure Carrier

option will provide an un-modulated
output carrier at the desired frequency

and output power. Other Carrier Mode
options include Clock 4/8/16.
