-<title>DVB Frontend properties</title>
-<para>Tuning into a Digital TV physical channel and starting decoding it
- requires changing a set of parameters, in order to control the
- tuner, the demodulator, the Linear Low-noise Amplifier (LNA) and to set the
- antenna subsystem via Satellite Equipment Control (SEC), on satellite
- systems. The actual parameters are specific to each particular digital
- TV standards, and may change as the digital TV specs evolves.</para>
-<para>In the past, the strategy used was to have a union with the parameters
- needed to tune for DVB-S, DVB-C, DVB-T and ATSC delivery systems grouped
- there. The problem is that, as the second generation standards appeared,
- those structs were not big enough to contain the additional parameters.
- Also, the union didn't have any space left to be expanded without breaking
- userspace. So, the decision was to deprecate the legacy union/struct based
- approach, in favor of a properties set approach.</para>
-
-<para>NOTE: on Linux DVB API version 3, setting a frontend were done via
- <link linkend="dvb-frontend-parameters">struct <constant>dvb_frontend_parameters</constant></link>.
- This got replaced on version 5 (also called "S2API", as this API were
- added originally_enabled to provide support for DVB-S2), because the old
- API has a very limited support to new standards and new hardware. This
- section describes the new and recommended way to set the frontend, with
- suppports all digital TV delivery systems.</para>
-
-<para>Example: with the properties based approach, in order to set the tuner
- to a DVB-C channel at 651 kHz, modulated with 256-QAM, FEC 3/4 and symbol
- rate of 5.217 Mbauds, those properties should be sent to

-
- <para>An ISDB-Tsb channel (1 or 3 segments) can be broadcasted alone or in a
- set of connected ISDB-Tsb channels. In this set of channels every
- channel can be received independently. The number of connected
- ISDB-Tsb segment can vary, e.g. depending on the frequency spectrum
- bandwidth available.</para>
-
- <para>Example: Assume 8 ISDB-Tsb connected segments are broadcasted. The
- broadcaster has several possibilities to put those channels in the
- air: Assuming a normal 13-segment ISDB-T spectrum he can align the 8
- segments from position 1-8 to 5-13 or anything in between.</para>
-
- <para>The underlying layer of segments are subchannels: each segment is
- consisting of several subchannels with a predefined IDs. A sub-channel
- is used to help the demodulator to synchronize on the channel.</para>
-
- <para>An ISDB-T channel is always centered over all sub-channels. As for
- the example above, in ISDB-Tsb it is no longer as simple as that.</para>
-
- <para><constant>The DTV_ISDBT_SB_SUBCHANNEL_ID</constant> parameter is used to give the

- <para>ISDB-T channels can be coded hierarchically. As opposed to DVB-T in
- ISDB-T hierarchical layers can be decoded simultaneously. For that
- reason a ISDB-T demodulator has 3 Viterbi and 3 Reed-Solomon decoders.</para>
