3.5 GPS Interface Module (MX8400/HWO/GPS)
3.5.1 Overview
3.5.1.1 Functional Description
The addition of SFN adapter functionality within the MX8400 as part of Release
3.0.0 allows SFN headend architectures to be designed around the MX8400 without
the need for third-party SFN adapters. The main function of the SFN adapter is to
produce an output transport stream which is in accordance to TS 101 191 V1.4.1.
Please refer to Annex H, Setting up the SFN Functionality for details of the SFN
Adapter.
The SFN adapter provides the information within the outgoing transport stream to
allow all modulators operating within the same SFN network to broadcast in a
synchronised manner. The synchronisation is achieved by frequency locking the
SFN adapter and Modulators to a GPS 10 MHz reference clock derived from GPS.
The GPS Interface Module (MX8400/HWO/GPS) provides this signal to the unit.
