******************************
Digital TV property parameters
******************************


.. _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 than one modulation type. The modulation can be one of the
types defined by enum :ref:`fe_modulation <fe-modulation>`.


.. _fe-modulation-t:

Modulation property
-------------------

Most of the digital TV standards currently offers more than one possible
modulation (sometimes called as "constellation" on some standards). This
enum contains the values used by the Kernel. Please note that not all
modulations are supported by a given standard.

       -  4-QAM-NR modulation



.. _DTV-BANDWIDTH-HZ:

DTV_BANDWIDTH_HZ
================

Bandwidth for the channel, in HZ.

Possible values: ``1712000``, ``5000000``, ``6000000``, ``7000000``,
``8000000``, ``10000000``.

.. note::

  #. DVB-T supports 6, 7 and 8MHz.

  #. DVB-T2 supports 1.172, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 10MHz.

  #. ISDB-T supports 5MHz, 6MHz, 7MHz and 8MHz, although most
     places use 6MHz.

  #. On DVB-C and DVB-S/S2, the bandwidth depends on the symbol rate.
     So, the Kernel will silently ignore setting :ref:`DTV-BANDWIDTH-HZ`.

  #. For DVB-C and DVB-S/S2, the Kernel will return an estimation of the
     bandwidth, calculated from :ref:`DTV-SYMBOL-RATE` and from
     the rolloff, with is fixed for DVB-C and DVB-S.

  #. For DVB-S2, the bandwidth estimation will use :ref:`DTV-ROLLOFF`.

  #. For ISDB-Tsb, it can vary depending on the number of connected
     segments.

  #. Bandwidth in ISDB-Tsb can be easily derived from other parameters
     (DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_IDX, DTV_ISDBT_SB_SEGMENT_COUNT).


.. _DTV-INVERSION:

DTV_INVERSION
=============

Specifies if the frontend should do spectral inversion or not.


.. _fe-spectral-inversion-t:

enum fe_modulation: Frontend spectral inversion
-----------------------------------------------

This parameter indicates if spectral inversion should be presumed or
not. In the automatic setting (``INVERSION_AUTO``) the hardware will try
to figure out the correct setting by itself. If the hardware doesn't
support, the DVB core will try to lock at the carrier first with
inversion off. If it fails, it will try to enable inversion.

.. _DTV-ISDBT-PARTIAL-RECEPTION:

DTV_ISDBT_PARTIAL_RECEPTION
===========================

If ``DTV_ISDBT_SOUND_BROADCASTING`` is '0' this bit-field represents
whether the channel is in partial reception mode or not.

If '1' ``DTV_ISDBT_LAYERA_*`` values are assigned to the center segment
and ``DTV_ISDBT_LAYERA_SEGMENT_COUNT`` has to be '1'.

If in addition ``DTV_ISDBT_SOUND_BROADCASTING`` is '1'
``DTV_ISDBT_PARTIAL_RECEPTION`` represents whether this ISDB-Tsb channel
is consisting of one segment and layer or three segments and two layers.

Possible values: 0, 1, -1 (AUTO)


.. _DTV-ISDBT-SOUND-BROADCASTING:

DTV_ISDBT_SOUND_BROADCASTING
============================

This field represents whether the other DTV_ISDBT_*-parameters are
referring to an ISDB-T and an ISDB-Tsb channel. (See also
``DTV_ISDBT_PARTIAL_RECEPTION``).

Possible values: 0, 1, -1 (AUTO)


.. _DTV-ISDBT-SB-SUBCHANNEL-ID:

DTV_ISDBT_SB_SUBCHANNEL_ID
==========================

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
========================

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
==========================

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
===============================

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
-----------------------

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. Other bits will be silently ignored:

``DTV_ISDBT_LAYER_ENABLED`` bit 0: layer A enabled

``DTV_ISDBT_LAYER_ENABLED`` bit 1: layer B enabled

``DTV_ISDBT_LAYER_ENABLED`` bit 2: layer C enabled

``DTV_ISDBT_LAYER_ENABLED`` bits 3-31: unused


.. _DTV-ISDBT-LAYER-FEC:

DTV_ISDBT_LAYER[A-C]_FEC

``FEC_5_6``, ``FEC_7_8``


.. _DTV-ISDBT-LAYER-MODULATION:

DTV_ISDBT_LAYER[A-C]_MODULATION
-------------------------------

Possible values: ``QAM_AUTO``, QP\ ``SK, QAM_16``, ``QAM_64``, ``DQPSK``

Note: If layer C is ``DQPSK`` layer B has to be ``DQPSK``. If layer B is
``DQPSK`` and ``DTV_ISDBT_PARTIAL_RECEPTION``\ =0 layer has to be
``DQPSK``.


.. _DTV-ISDBT-LAYER-SEGMENT-COUNT:

DTV_ISDBT_LAYER[A-C]_SEGMENT_COUNT

       -  Multi Carrier (C=3780) transmission mode (DTMB)


Notes:

1) ISDB-T supports three carrier/symbol-size: 8K, 4K, 2K. It is called
'mode' in the standard: Mode 1 is 2K, mode 2 is 4K, mode 3 is 8K

2) If ``DTV_TRANSMISSION_MODE`` is set the ``TRANSMISSION_MODE_AUTO``
the hardware will try to find the correct FFT-size (if capable) and will
use TMCC to fill in the missing parameters.

3) DVB-T specifies 2K and 8K as valid sizes.

4) DVB-T2 specifies 1K, 2K, 4K, 8K, 16K and 32K.

       -  Hierarchy 2

    -  .. row 6

       -  .. _HIERARCHY-4:

	  ``HIERARCHY_4``

       -  Hierarchy 4



.. _DTV-STREAM-ID:

DTV_STREAM_ID
=============

DVB-S2, DVB-T2 and ISDB-S support the transmission of several streams on
a single transport stream. This property enables the DVB driver to
handle substream filtering, when supported by the hardware. By default,
substream filtering is disabled.

For DVB-S2 and DVB-T2, the valid substream id range is from 0 to 255.

For ISDB, the valid substream id range is from 1 to 65535.

To disable it, you should use the special macro NO_STREAM_ID_FILTER.

Note: any value outside the id range also disables filtering.


.. _DTV-DVBT2-PLP-ID-LEGACY:

DTV_DVBT2_PLP_ID_LEGACY
=======================

Obsolete, replaced with DTV_STREAM_ID.


.. _DTV-ENUM-DELSYS:

DTV_ENUM_DELSYS
===============

A Multi standard frontend needs to advertise the delivery systems
provided. Applications need to enumerate the provided delivery systems,
before using any other operation with the frontend. Prior to it's
introduction, FE_GET_INFO was used to determine a frontend type. A
frontend which provides more than a single delivery system,
FE_GET_INFO doesn't help much. Applications which intends to use a
multistandard frontend must enumerate the delivery systems associated
with it, rather than trying to use FE_GET_INFO. In the case of a
legacy frontend, the result is just the same as with FE_GET_INFO, but
in a more structured format


.. _DTV-INTERLEAVING:
