Please notice, however, that only +a subset of them are needed to setup a frontend. + + +.. _DTV-UNDEFINED: + +DTV_UNDEFINED +============= + +Used internally. A GET/SET operation for it won't change or return +anything. + + +.. _DTV-TUNE: + +DTV_TUNE +======== + +Interpret the cache of data, build either a traditional frontend +tunerequest so we can pass validation in the ``FE_SET_FRONTEND`` ioctl. + + +.. _DTV-CLEAR: + +DTV_CLEAR +========= + +Reset a cache of data specific to the frontend here. This does not +effect hardware. + + +.. _DTV-FREQUENCY: + +DTV_FREQUENCY +============= + +Frequency of the digital TV transponder/channel. + +.. note:: + + #. For satellite delivery systems, the frequency is in kHz. + + #. For cable and terrestrial delivery systems, the frequency is in + Hz. + + #. On most delivery systems, the frequency is the center frequency + of the transponder/channel. The exception is for ISDB-T, where + the main carrier has a 1/7 offset from the center. + + #. For ISDB-T, the channels are usually transmitted with an offset of + about 143kHz. E.g. a valid frequency could be 474,143 kHz. The + stepping is bound to the bandwidth of the channel which is + typically 6MHz. + + #. In ISDB-Tsb, the channel consists of only one or three segments the + frequency step is 429kHz, 3*429 respectively. + + +.. _DTV-MODULATION: + +DTV_MODULATION +============== + +Specifies the frontend modulation type for delivery systems that +supports more multiple modulations. + +The modulation can be one of the types defined by enum :c:type:`fe_modulation`. + +Most of the digital TV standards offers more than one possible +modulation type. + +The table below presents a summary of the types of modulation types +supported by each delivery system, as currently defined by specs. + +======================= ======================================================= +Standard Modulation types +======================= ======================================================= +ATSC (version 1) 8-VSB and 16-VSB. +DMTB 4-QAM, 16-QAM, 32-QAM, 64-QAM and 4-QAM-NR. +DVB-C Annex A/C 16-QAM, 32-QAM, 64-QAM and 256-QAM. +DVB-C Annex B 64-QAM. +DVB-T QPSK, 16-QAM and 64-QAM. +DVB-T2 QPSK, 16-QAM, 64-QAM and 256-QAM. +DVB-S No need to set.

It is always 6MHz. +DMTB No need to set. It is always 8MHz. +DVB-T 6MHz, 7MHz and 8MHz. +DVB-T2 1.172 MHz, 5MHz, 6MHz, 7MHz, 8MHz and 10MHz +ISDB-T 5MHz, 6MHz, 7MHz and 8MHz, although most places + use 6MHz. +======================= ======================================================= + + +.. note:: + + + #. For ISDB-Tsb, the bandwidth can vary depending on the number of + connected segments. + + It can be easily derived from other parameters + (DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_IDX, DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_COUNT). + + #. On Satellite and Cable delivery systems, the bandwidth depends on + the symbol rate. So, the Kernel will silently ignore any setting + :ref:`DTV-BANDWIDTH-HZ`.

(See also +``DTV_ISDBT_PARTIAL_RECEPTION``). + +Possible values: 0, 1, -1 (AUTO) + + +.. _DTV-ISDBT-SB-SUBCHANNEL-ID: + +DTV_ISDBT_SB_SUBCHANNEL_ID +========================== + +Used only on ISDB. + +This field only applies if ``DTV_ISDBT_SOUND_BROADCASTING`` is '1'. + +(Note of the author: This might not be the correct description of the +``SUBCHANNEL-ID`` in all details, but it is my understanding of the +technical background needed to program a device) + +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. + +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. + +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. + +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. + +``The DTV_ISDBT_SB_SUBCHANNEL_ID`` parameter is used to give the +sub-channel ID of the segment to be demodulated. + +Possible values: 0 .. 41, -1 (AUTO) + + +.. _DTV-ISDBT-SB-SEGMENT-IDX: + +DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_IDX +======================== + +Used only on ISDB. + +This field only applies if ``DTV_ISDBT_SOUND_BROADCASTING`` is '1'. + +``DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_IDX`` gives the index of the segment to be +demodulated for an ISDB-Tsb channel where several of them are +transmitted in the connected manner. + +Possible values: 0 .. ``DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_COUNT`` - 1 + +Note: This value cannot be determined by an automatic channel search. + + +.. _DTV-ISDBT-SB-SEGMENT-COUNT: + +DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_COUNT +========================== + +Used only on ISDB. + +This field only applies if ``DTV_ISDBT_SOUND_BROADCASTING`` is '1'. + +``DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_COUNT`` gives the total count of connected +ISDB-Tsb channels. + +Possible values: 1 .. 13 + +Note: This value cannot be determined by an automatic channel search. + + +.. _isdb-hierq-layers: + +DTV-ISDBT-LAYER[A-C] parameters +=============================== + +Used only on ISDB. + +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. + +ISDB-T has 3 hierarchical layers which each can use a part of the +available segments. The total number of segments over all layers has to +13 in ISDB-T. + +There are 3 parameter sets, for Layers A, B and C. + + +.. _DTV-ISDBT-LAYER-ENABLED: + +DTV_ISDBT_LAYER_ENABLED +----------------------- + +Used only on ISDB. + +Hierarchical reception in ISDB-T is achieved by enabling or disabling +layers in the decoding process. Setting all bits of +``DTV_ISDBT_LAYER_ENABLED`` to '1' forces all layers (if applicable) to +be demodulated. This is the default. + +If the channel is in the partial reception mode +(``DTV_ISDBT_PARTIAL_RECEPTION`` = 1) the central segment can be decoded +independently of the other 12 segments. In that mode layer A has to have +a ``SEGMENT_COUNT`` of 1. + +In ISDB-Tsb only layer A is used, it can be 1 or 3 in ISDB-Tsb according +to ``DTV_ISDBT_PARTIAL_RECEPTION``. ``SEGMENT_COUNT`` must be filled +accordingly. + +Only the values of the first 3 bits are used.
