French modulator and demodulator firm TeamCast is using IBC to discuss its role in an experimental Ultra HD DTT transmission project currently taking place at the Eiffel Tower in Paris. Working with French
broadcaster TDF, 4K live and recorded content is being transmitted throughout Paris using HEVC encoding and DVB- T2 modulation. The transmitter being used for the project is from Plisch, while the DVB-T2 modulator is from TeamCast. The experiment started during
the French International Tennis Tour in late May and will last until
DVB-S2X software upgrade
Newtec By Ian McMurray
The new DVB-S2X transmission standard reaches efficiency gains over DVB-S2 of up to 51% for high speed professional applications and up to 20% for Direct-To-Home (DTH) applications, according to Newtec, and now it has announced that its professional 6000 series of broadcast satellite
modulators, modems, OEM boards and hubs are software upgradeable to the new standard.
Newtec believes that DVB-S2X is much needed as the growing consumption of video and data, and the ever growing consumer demand for higher quality video such as HD and 4K UHDTV, continue to squeeze bandwidth. Satellite operators and broadcasters using Newtec's equipment can cut costs or deliver more and higher quality content within the same capacity. “Next to continuous innovation, we understand that open standards are fundamental to our satellite industry,” said Serge Van Herck, CEO, Newtec. “That’s why we have been actively paving the way for the brand new DVB-S2X standard.” 1.A49

January 2015. TeamCast general manager and EVP Serge Mal said: "We have had a long partnership with Plisch in DTT and Digital Radio, and we are proud that such a
world first was made with our common technologies. With several thousands units already in regular operation worldwide, we can now measure the potential of these technologies
for the next generation of TV.” For this project TDF was able
to offer live UHD coverage of the French Open 2014 tennis championship to viewers with compatible 4KTV sets. Also showing at IBC is the DAB/DAB+/DMB Green4DAB modulator, a new offering that includes an adaptive pre-
correction algorithm designed to increase transmitter power efficiency. The RQX1, a monitoring receiver with DVB- T2-Base and DVB-T2-Lite measurement capabilities, and the VYP, a compact OEM DVB- S/S2/S2X and DVB-DSNG modulator, are also on show. 2.B51
